The Minister of Works, David Umahi, says he thinks of President Bola Tinubu as Joseph the dreamer because he has the courage to achieve many goals.
According to Umahi, God has helped Tinubu to actualise all his dreams.
The minister said this while presenting his ministry’s performance at the Ministerial Press Briefing in Abuja.
He said when the President tasked him with the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road project, he drew inspiration from the Eko Atlantic project, the success of which is attributed to Tinubu’s performance as Governor of Lagos State between 1999 and 2007.
“Mr. President is a man of courage. I call him the Joseph the dreamer, and God has helped him to make flesh all his dreams. I commend him very highly,” Umahi said.
Earlier in his presentation, Umahi commended Tinubu for commencing the Sokoto-Badagry road project, which according to him, was an idea that former President Shehu Shagari conceived 47 years ago.
He said, “The good news is the Sokoto-Badagry. This was a dream of the Shagari istration about 47 years back. And it was supposed to be Badagry-Sokoto, but a very detribalised President directed us to change it to Sokoto-Badagry.”
Umahi said only a man with great courage and the power of dreams could engage in such a project.
The former Governor of Ebonyi further praised Tinubu for his performance since he assumed office in May 2023.

Why not make your presentations and leave quietly. Anyway I don't blame them, that is a typical Igbo politician for you....slaughter his own for the Nigerian politicians to feast on, just for his own selfish gain. Anytime Soludo holds a microphone the next thing that you'll hear from his mouth is Peter Obi, even in his bedroom, as reported recently by her daughter in her Facebook post.
Akpabio, Sowore, and even one under performing governors whose people are killed like house flies by the Fulani invaders left what to tackle and started attacking Obi.
Any body that has work to do wouldn't be attacking Peter Obi, You'll face your job. As bad as Wike is, you won't hear him insult Peter Obi, at least not for now because he is busy doing meaningful projects for the FCT. Maybe be will do so when he lost focus and stops delivering projects he is focused on.
Umahi is busy building a 15-Storey hotel in Enugu with looted money. He should as a matter of urgency fix the Federal roads in connecting the South East to the South South and the North. The 9th Mile - Nsukka - Markudi road, Port Harcourt-Aba road, Enugu- Ebonyi road. He should stop butchering his kinsman and presenting his meat for the Nigerian politicians to feast on.
Where is Rotimi Amaechi today after he failed to do one single project in his Rivers State and the entire South South because he was serving a Fulani master to please him, and also the hatred he has for Wike. Did he ever dreamt in his life that by this time he would be a nobody in the scheme of things in Nigerian politics.

Umahi should take note.
You have time to type all this long story, definitely you are jobless, go and get a job.
As for use and dump that you mentioned, Tinubu never ever dump his people. Several of those that were with him in 1993 when he was first elected Senator are Ministers in this istration, that is why some hate filled people are wailing. Even most marriages don’t last as long.

While you celebrate Tinubu for recycling those who were with him since 1993, I'm sure you and a lot of people in your family are unemployed and struggles to have three square meal daily. Your strength and joy comes from typing and defending rubbish.
Unaware Mental slave.

You didn't even read any part of the story.
There was no where umahi mentioned anything about obi or obedients.
The headline is misleading and you fell for it.
You hear statements like this when they know clearly they have lost touch with the ordinary Nigerian citizen and they are trying to drag into their corrupt stupidity Peter Obi, the man who today represents the yearnings of the average Nigerian masses and down trodden
Nobody is against him, what will Buhari or Tinubu now say? You like him no doubt but like i said, do unto other what u want done to u.. U can't be abusing tinubu and others, and expect Obi not to collect... Bro it is unrealistic and hypocritical

You are Happy when Obi de markets Nigeria outside the country but sad when others criticise Obi. Is that not hypocrisy? Oga, deal with your nediocre messiah

Tinubu is Nigeria’s de-marketer-in-chief.
What serious foreign investor would commit capital to a country led by an individual whose early life remains shrouded in mystery where the first twenty years of his life are undocumented, his biological parents are unknown, and there is no verifiable record of his primary or secondary education?
Which investor would trust a nation led by a man once implicated in narcotics trafficking, who forfeited over $460,000 to the United States government in connection with drug-related proceeds, and who remains visibly unsettled whenever legal decisions from the U.S. threaten to unearth further details?
Who would risk investing in a country where the president routinely travels to Europe for holidays while the nation grapples with deepening insecurity, widespread hunger, and increasing poverty?
What confidence can investors have in a government where the president’s son, holding no constitutional office, can allegedly order violent attacks on citizens, threaten lives, and boast of impunity, simply because of his father’s position?
Why would anyone invest in a country where the president openly disregards the rule of law, violates constitutional provisions, and acts as the chief lawbreaker in a system that demands his protection of democratic norms?
And finally, who would invest in a country where the president can unilaterally declare a state of emergency, remove a duly elected governor, deputy governor and of a state house of assembly without any constitutional backing, while the National Assembly watches in silence?
This is the image Nigeria currently presents to the world under Tinubu's leadership, one of uncertainty, lawlessness, and institutional decay.
