2025 Will Mark Turning Point In South East Security–Umahi

Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi, has assured the people of the South East that 2025 would mark a turning point in the federal government’s efforts at tackling security challenges in the zone.

He gave the assurance during a visit by the Izzi Nnodo Youth Forum at his country home, Uburu, Ohaozara local government area of Ebonyi State on Friday.

The minister while recounting the democracy dividends in the South East  under the present administration called  for more support and solidarity  for the administration.

“We must always be grateful to God, and we must be grateful to the president. I believe strongly that the Igbo people, the South East people, are now on the right  track. We have learnt to talk less. We have learnt to know that the centre belongs to all of us. We have learnt to support the government at the centre,” he said.

The minister in a statement by his special adviser on media, Barr. Orji Uchenna Orji, hailed  the stewardship of Governor Francis Nwifuru which he said had deepened  the cause of peace and tranquility  in the state.
