Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has said he believes President Bola Tinubu will continue to receive God’s guidance to lead Nigeria until 2031.
Umahi made the remark on Thursday during an inspection of ongoing bridge projects in Lagos State. The projects included the Carter Bridge, which is expected to undergo reconstruction from next week.
The minister said the current administration would continue to enjoy divine backing as it works to address national problems, especially insecurity.
“The same God that brought him is going to be there to solve all the problems,” Umahi said.
He also appealed to Nigerians to cooperate with the Federal Government and support efforts aimed at restoring security across the country.
According to him, every government desires peace and stability, but leaders must take action whenever challenges emerge.
“There is no leader who will not want his reign to be peaceful, but when crises come, the leader must confront them. That is exactly what we are doing,” he stated.
Umahi added that regardless of the cause of insecurity in the country, he remained confident that Tinubu would receive the wisdom and strength needed to handle the situation and other national issues.
The minister also expressed confidence that projects initiated by the administration would be completed successfully.
“Your hands that have started this will complete it,” Umahi stated.
Speaking on the reconstruction of Carter Bridge, Umahi disclosed that the project is expected to last for about three years.
“It is within our five-year plan,” he added.
