Nigeria’s Minister of Works, David Umahi, has announced the resumption of abandoned road projects in the Southeast region under the Tinubu administration. A key focus is the Calabar-Ebonyi-Benue Trans-Saharan Superhighway, envisioned to boost economic activity across multiple regions including the South-East, South-South, and North-Central. The superhighway is considered a flagship project intended to stimulate trade and development. Umahi’s statement signals a renewed commitment to infrastructure development in a region that has long awaited such investment. The revival of these projects aims to address regional economic disparities and improve connectivity. Further details regarding project timelines and funding were not immediately available. This initiative represents a significant step towards fulfilling infrastructure promises made by the current administration.
