Umahi: Tinubu will allocate money for quality roads

Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has assured Nigerians that President Bola Tinubu will allocate funds for the construction of quality roads across the country.

Umahi spoke on Thursday while featuring on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme.

The former Ebonyi State governor admitted that the major challenge in road development is the issue of construction cost.

“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.
