The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has announced that the picture of President Bola Tinubu will be displayed on the First Niger Bridge connecting Anambra and Delta states after its completion. Umahi made this announcement on Wednesday while inspecting the bridge's rehabilitation work. He encouraged voters in the South-East to take into account Tinubu's infrastructure projects in the region before the 2027 elections.
The bridge was temporarily closed earlier this month following the removal of structural elements such as bolts, nuts, and parts of the expansion joint by vandals. Umahi emphasized that once the bridge is restored, all unauthorized advertisements should be taken down and replaced with images of President Tinubu, acknowledging his contributions to the region.
He stated, "Once we are done with work on this bridge, I want all the illegal adverts on this bridge removed. Anyone who wants to advertise should apply to the Ministry of Works. For now, the bridge will be decorated with the pictures of President Tinubu." The former governor of Ebonyi State also urged South-East voters not to squander their votes in the upcoming presidential election.
