Friday, September 25, 2026 - The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has ordered that the picture of President Bola Tinubu will be pasted on the First Niger Bridge linking Anambra and Delta states, upon completion.
Umahi gave the order on Wednesday while inspecting
rehabilitation work on the bridge.
He urged voters in the South-East to consider Tinubu’s
infrastructure projects in the region ahead of the 2027 election.
The bridge was closed earlier this month after vandals
removed structural components including bolts, nuts and parts of the expansion
joint.
on the bridge should be removed after the rehabilitation and
replaced with Tinubu’s pictures in recognition of what he described as the
President’s efforts in the region.
“Once we are done with work on this bridge, I want all the
illegal adverts on this bridge removed. Anyone who wants to advertise should
apply to the Ministry of Works. For now, the bridge will be decorated with the
pictures of President Tinubu.
“The President has worked so hard and we need to reward his
hard work by decorating this bridge with his pictures,” Umahi said.
The former Ebonyi State governor equally appealed to voters
in the South-East ahead of the 2027 presidential election not to throw away
their votes.
