APC chieftain Abdulmumin Jibrin has alleged that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu inherited numerous unfinished road projects from the administration of Muhammadu Buhari and has continued work on all of them while also initiating new infrastructure projects.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, Jibrin argued that many major road projects launched during Buhari’s eight years in office were still incomplete when Tinubu assumed office.
According to him, the current administration has maintained construction work on those projects rather than abandoning them.
“When the president came, he inherited projects. Let me just take road infrastructure. All the projects that for eight years were being executed by the Buhari administration were not completed in eight years. The president has done two-plus years. Tell me one of those projects that is not being continued,” Jibrin said.
To support his argument, he listed several ongoing road projects, including the Abuja–Kaduna–Kano highway, the Kano–Maiduguri road, the Abuja–Keffi–Lafia route, the Zaria–Gusau road, and the Kano–Katsina highway.
Jibrin further stated that the Tinubu administration has gone beyond continuing inherited projects by launching new infrastructure initiatives, including the proposed Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway.
He maintained that one of the administration’s biggest challenges is not project delivery but public communication, arguing that many Nigerians, particularly those in rural communities, are not fully aware of the infrastructure projects being undertaken across the country.
According to him, improving communication about ongoing development efforts would help citizens better understand the scope of government activities and investments in infrastructure nationwide…..See More
