PRESIDENT TINUBU CONGRATULATES ENGINEER DAVID UMAHI ON HIS BIRTHDAY

President Bola Tinubu heartily congratulates Engineer David Umahi, Minister of Works, on his birthday on July 25.

Before he was appointed Minister of Works, Engineer Umahi served as the Senator representing Ebonyi South District. He was also a two-term Governor of Ebonyi State from May 2015 to May 2023, during which the state recorded landmark infrastructural development.

Recognising the Minister’s sustained efforts in delivering durable road infrastructure, President Tinubu commends Engineer Umahi for his passion, dedication to duty, and deep sense of patriotism.

The President urges the Minister to accelerate road construction, rehabilitation, and delivery, in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda’s objective of improving citizens’ quality of life and boosting economic activity.

“Engineer Umahi has been one of my outstanding, hardworking ministers—passionate about the job and delivering durable roads and bridges that will last for about a century.

“As a minister, he does not just sit in his office or rely on reports from subordinates; he is constantly on the road, personally monitoring construction work nationwide to ensure compliance with specifications and approvals,” President Tinubu notes.

President Tinubu celebrates with the minister and his family and wishes him good health and renewed strength as he continues to serve the nation.
