The Minister of Works, David Umahi, has felicitated with President Bola Tinubu, the champion of democracy and vision bearer of the Renewed Hope Agenda, on the commemoration of the 26th anniversary of unbroken democracy in Nigeria.

Umahi, in a statement in Abuja, said they are enthused to celebrate this remarkable event, courtesy of rewarding leadership stewardship and the struggle for the redemocratization of the country and the emergence as the fifth democratically elected President of the Fourth Republic.

“These are a clear indication of God’s unction in Mr. President’s enduring vision to achieve the purpose of our democratic journey, which is economic prosperity and social justice.

“History will be kind to you for raising dispassionate standards and taking bold decisions that will return our country to the path of greatness in the continent of Africa,” he added.

The Minister declared that in the Works sector, the President has made gratifying progress in deepening and fast-tracking the gains of democracy through the record-breaking accomplishments in road infrastructure, which are distributed equitably across the six geopolitical zones.

“You have continued to blaze the trail in the passionate delivery of enduring infrastructure, which is critical for the nation’s developmental progress, especially your initiative to expand the nation’s road network and interconnect the major economic corridors through the four Renewed Hope Legacy Projects.”

He reiterated that under his leadership, “We savour a brand new era of regenerative democracy where the institutions and authorities work deliberately and collectively to achieve a nation of equal opportunities, irrespective of tribe, religion, or social class.”

While saluting the National Assembly and the Judiciary, which are the pillars of our democracy, Umahi prayed to God to prosper the aspirations of the President and grant the grace and enablement to achieve all that he desires for the nation.
