Minister of Works, Senator Dave Umahi, has disclosed that several South East road projects, originally conceived during the colonial era but left unrealised for decades, are now being brought to life under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.Speaking at the weekend in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, while conducting newsmen and government officials on a tour of the administration’s legacy projects, Umahi – former governor of Ebonyi State – highlighted the Calabar-Ebonyi-Benue Trans-Saharan Superhighway as a project of strategic importance to the South East, South South, and parts of the North Central region.According to him: “It is a colonial-era dream long forgotten, but President Tinubu has revived it, and construction is now underway. We must thank him immensely.”
