Minster of works David Umahi said the Renewed Hope Legacy Infrastructure Project of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is designed to cover eight years.
He declared that the President has seven more years to deliver roads projects in Nigeria.
Umehi spoke in Lafia while speaking to all the north central Governors and stakeholders on the Federal Government proposed construction of Cross River-Ebonyi-Benue-Kogi-Nasarawa-Apo superhighway to be fully funded by the Tinubu istration.
According to him: “I request that you buy into it and Mr President who still has about 7 more years to deliver these projects. We believe that within these 7 years, the three legacy projects shall be delivered.”
The former Ebonyi Governor informed he 477km superhighway is a legacy project of the Tinubu istration which would bring a lot of benefits to Nigerians, particularly to the residents of the benefiting States and boost economy.
The proposed new roads, which would be an offshoot of the Lagos-calabar coastal highway has Nasarawa covering 95km; Kogi 111km; Benue 66km, while the FCT has 12km totalling 477km.
The Minister noted President Tinubu’s commitment to ensure the completion of the Lagos-Ondo-Edo-Delta-Bayelsa-Rivers-Akwa Ibom-Cross Rivers and the Sokoto-Kebbi-Niger-Kwara-Oyo-Ogun-Badagry superhighways.
According to him: “There are a lot of benefits because of these three superhighways. I want to assure that this is beyond road construction, but it is an investment. This is because it is a catalyst that is going to revive the entire economy of the country.
“I request that you buy into it and Mr. President who still has about seven more years to deliver these projects. We believe that with these seven years, these three legacy projects shall be delivered.”
The Minister further disclosed that all the road projects would be reinforced with concrete to enable them last up to 50 years before any maintenance is required.
“Each of these sections are going to be on reinforced concrete. Each of these sections has six lanes. It also has a train track. We are also using solar streetlights.
"The benefits of these three legacy projects cannot be overemphasized. It is going to be done in concrete. Sokoto-Badagry has 53 dams on that section. Any road properly constructed on concrete, for the next 50 years, you will not touch it. Lagos-Calabar has a lot of potentials. In fact, we are aiming at finishing the first section 47.7km by May next year and we will be tolling it immediately,” he explained.
The Minister further informed the Governors and other North Central stakeholders the Federal Executive Council had directed that federal government projects spread across states that have remained uncompleted for a long period of time should be determined and prioritised.
On their parts, Governors of the North Central geopolitical zone, as well as critical stakeholders particularly those of Nasarawa, Benue and Kogi States, commended President Bola Tinubu for conceiving the idea of the Renewed Hope Legacy Infrastructure Project.

, the governor of Ebonyi State, may be a tough critic, but I am confident that with Tinubu's leadership and determination, these road projects will be completed in record time.

Federal roads in Nigeria will look like roads in Doha, Dubai and Jeddah by the time Tinubu is about to handover on may 29 2031. Our federal roads will no longer look like roads in Aba and Onitsha.

Indeed, the lagos-ibadan express way which is less than 250km is still under construction, over one decade of construction flag off.
At least, this man came out to say something, even though he knows from the depth of his heart that 20 years is not feasible in completing the massively inflated lagos-calabar coastal road construction contract.
Nigeria is too patient. They can accept anything. I blame those illiterate ers of this government. Sanwoolu has used the 4th mainland bridge to campaign and win election once again. They're not even talking about it again. That's what my people want...to be lied to, all the time

Oloriburuku, oloshi, if only Nigerian youths are not docile, if only the political elites have not caused divisions in the country beyond the ordinary, if only APC and Tinubu have not weaponised poverty so much so that no one even has the strength to protest against the most useless government we have ever seen, if only Kenya would happen to these useless runny mouth charlatans in government. Imagine what this masahanfani Umahi is saying. Imagine, in just 2024 alone, there has been nationwide blackout as a result national grid collapse four different times, no light all over the nation as we type, acute poverty, loss of jobs and death in the land yet the were is talking about road construction

Umahi is the minister of works so It's only normal to speak of road projects.
That's one of his portfolios.
