Tinubu Will Provide Funding For Good Roads - Umahi

Dave Umahi

Dave Umahi, the minister of works, has told Nigerians that President Bola Tinubu will allot funding for the development of high-quality roads throughout the nation.

On Thursday, Umahi stated while appearing on the Sunrise Daily program on Channels Television.

"We are looking at all these things. How do we cut down costs? Because the primary issue is also the cost of construction.

"I am telling them your profit, I will protect whatever thing you want to make but, let's help Nigeria, let's build a road that will last and the funny thing is that the government - the President will give out the money," Umahi said.

The former governor of Ebonyi State acknowledged that the high cost of building is the main obstacle to road development.
