Tinubu is my Small god, Says Umahi
The Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, has publicly declared that his loyalty lies solely with God and President Bola Tinubu. The Minister made this assertion while addressing journalists in Abakaliki, the capital city of Ebonyi State, in response to a recent commendation from President Tinubu on his outstanding achievements in infrastructure development.
Speaking with conviction and clarity, Senator Umahi emphasized that he takes instructions and directives only from these two entities, underscoring his commitment to serving the nation and upholding the principles of his faith. This declaration is seen as a testament to the Minister’s strong sense of purpose and his determination to prioritize the interests of the country and its leadership above all else.
The commendation from President Tinubu, which prompted Senator Umahi’s statement, was a significant recognition of the Minister’s efforts in driving infrastructure development across the nation. Under his stewardship, the Ministry of Works has made notable strides in improving the country’s road networks, bridges, and other critical infrastructure, which has had a positive impact on the economy and the lives of citizens.
Senator Umahi’s affirmation of loyalty to God and President Tinubu is also being interpreted as a demonstration of his unwavering support for the President’s vision and agenda for the country. As a key member of the President’s cabinet, the Minister is expected to play a crucial role in implementing policies and programs aimed at transforming Nigeria’s infrastructure landscape and driving sustainable development.
In his remarks, Senator Umahi expressed his gratitude to President Tinubu for the commendation, stating that it serves as a motivation to continue working tirelessly towards achieving the administration’s goals. He also reiterated his commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence in the discharge of his duties as Minister of Works.
The Minister’s declaration has been met with mixed reactions from various stakeholders, with some hailing it as a bold statement of loyalty and dedication, while others have raised questions about the implications of such a stance on the Minister’s independence and ability to make decisions in the best interest of the nation.
As the news continues to generate buzz, it remains to be seen how Senator Umahi’s affirmation of loyalty will impact his relationships with other stakeholders, including his colleagues in the cabinet, lawmakers, and the general public. One thing is certain, however: the Minister’s commitment to serving God and President Tinubu will be closely watched in the coming days and weeks, as the nation continues to navigate the complexities of governance and development.
