The leading Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has expressed optimism that the recently appointed Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, will apply the “Ebonyi magic” to address Nigeria’s infrastructure problems.
While thanking Umahi on being named a minister by Tinubu, Ohanaeze made the statement.
Because Umahi was a “champion of the infrastructural revolution” in Ebonyi State while he was governor, the body expressed faith that he would succeed.

According to a statement by Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the factional Secretary-General of Ohanaeze, the organisation was optimistic about Umahi’s appointment.
The group also asked President Tinubu’s other Igbo-appointed ministers to serve as honourable representatives of their community.
According to Isiguzoro: “We are delighted with the appointment of Senator Dave Umahi as Minister of Works by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“Umahi is a man of proven capacity and integrity, and we are confident that he will bring his wealth of experience to bear on the task of fixing Nigeria’s infrastructure.
“Umahi is a champion of infrastructural revolution. During his tenure as governor of Ebonyi State, he transformed the state from a rural State into one of the most developed states in Nigeria.

“He built roads, flyovers, hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure that have improved the lives of the people of Ebonyi.
“We are confident that Umahi will replicate the Ebonyi magic in tackling the infrastructural deficiencies in Nigeria. We urge him to work hard and deliver on the mandate given to him by President Tinubu, in line with the RENEWED HOPE agenda of the Federal Government.
“We also urge the other Igbo ministers appointed by President Tinubu to be worthy ambassadors of the Igbo people. They should work hard to promote the interests of the Igbo people and to ensure that the Igbo are given a fair share of the national cake.”
