Obi inciting Igbo against FG, coastal highway, Umahi alleges

Minister of Works, David Umahi , has said the presidential candidate of the Labour Party , Peter Obi, is inciting people of the South-East, especially the uninformed, against the Federal Government.

The minister added that Obi failed to advocate for the people even after leading them into difficulties. The 700-kilometre coastal highway project, estimated to cost the Federal Government N15 trillion, has attracted public outcry over the demolition of the Landmark Beach Resort valued at $200 million to pave the way for the road.

He disclosed this during a stakeholder meeting held in Lagos, yesterday, stating that the highway was projected to stretch from channel 0 to channel 3. “I wish to flag off the compensation from channel 0 to channel 3 in the total sum of N2.75 billion,” Umahi said. Umahi even challenged Landmark to provide documentation giving him ownership of the shoreline around Landmark. He said: “I’ve asked him to bring his documents and I challenge him and his co-politicians to bring the documents. Let him flash the documents before the press.”Before flagging, please keep in mind that Disqus does not moderate communities.
