Mrs Chioma Nweze, Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Community Engagement, Has Called on Residents to Back the President

Speaking on Sunday after inspecting federal road projects with Minister of Works Sen. David Umahi, Nweze said the administration's infrastructure drive had transformed the region. "This is unprecedented in the annals of the country, she said, citing Tinubu's commitment to the zone.

She praised the ongoing superhighway linking several states, including Ebonyi, as a boost to trade and connectivity. Nweze also lauded work on the Ndibe Bridge and other highways, and urged students to use the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) for higher education. She commended Umahi for supervising projects, noting the Afikpo-Okigwe highway had improved from its previously deplorable state."
