As Nigeria commemorates two years of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Umo Eno’s leadership, Senator Aniekan Bassey, representing Akwa Ibom North-East Senatorial District, has praised both leaders for prioritising infrastructure and economic reforms that are transforming lives and revitalising communities.

In Uyo, Senator Bassey stated that both administrations have strongly emphasised sustainable infrastructure and economic inclusion, laying a solid foundation for long-term prosperity. “From roads and bridges to power and education facilities, we are witnessing a governance model that understands the link between infrastructure and inclusive economic growth,” he remarked.

At the state level, Governor Umo Eno’s execution of the ARISE Agenda has led to the construction and rehabilitation of over 599 kilometres of rural and inter-local government roads. According to Senator Bassey, this has unlocked commercial potential in previously isolated communities, expanded logistics networks, and enhanced agricultural trade.

The development of 17 fully equipped model public schools with digital tools and science labs in the education sector reflects the administration’s focus on future-ready infrastructure. Senator Bassey also commended the healthcare system’s expansion, including 16 upgraded solar-powered health centres and a far-reaching medical outreach program.

The Dakkada scheme has energized the agricultural sector, with thousands of farmers gaining access to modern equipment, inputs, and training. Meanwhile, targeted youth empowerment through ₦650 million in grants under the “One Youth One Skill” programme is spurring microenterprise development across the state.

Nationally, the senator highlighted President Tinubu’s commitment to modernising infrastructure as a central pillar of economic transformation. Projects like the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway are opening up vital economic corridors. Under the current administration, more than 400 roads and bridges have been reconstructed or initiated.

“President Tinubu has demonstrated foresight by aligning infrastructure with national economic goals,” Senator Bassey said, citing the removal of fuel subsidy and exchange rate reforms as enablers of capital inflow and investment confidence. He also pointed to the National Food Security Council and mechanised farming clusters as strong responses to inflation and food supply challenges.

With ₦2.1 trillion allocated to security infrastructure and growing investment in digital innovation through the Digital Nigeria Programme, Senator Bassey emphasised that Nigeria is well on its way to becoming a more secure and economically competitive nation.

He urged citizens and stakeholders to support infrastructure development and reform continuity: “We must protect the gains we’ve made and support the policies that are building a stronger economic backbone for our country.”
