The choice of Umahi by President Bola Tinubu is seen as not only well-considered but also potentially transformative in addressing the nation’s infrastructure gaps.

Ijebor highlighted Umahi’s engineering expertise and his ability to transcend political, religious, and ethnic divides while focusing on development.

The PDP leader believes Umahi’s experience and charisma will contribute to a new era of infrastructural transformation if adequately supported.
