Umahi Ties Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Fate Directly to Tinubu’s 2027 Re-Election

Nigeria's Minister of Works, David Umahi, has linked the completion of the 750-kilometre Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway directly to President Bola Tinubu securing a second term in 2027. Umahi cautioned that without continuity, the ambitious multi-trillion-naira infrastructure corridor risks abandonment. The pronouncement effectively places flagship federal infrastructure at the center of the administration's early re-election pitch.
