God Told Me Tinubu Will Rule For Eight Years – Umahi

By Akinwale Kasali

Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has showered encomium on President Bola Tinubu’s administration, and said Nigerians made no mistake in electing him as their President.

He added that his emergence as President was divine, and revealed: “God told me Tinubu will be in the saddle as President for Two Terms.”

Umahi added that the Tinubu-led government is on the right path to restoring the country’s dignity.

Umahi who spoke in an interview on Channels Television, said: “ You must know that the coming onboard of Mr President is divine. When God starts a thing, He completes it.

“So, I strongly believe and I am persuaded to let you know that God told me that this administration will last eight years because this administration is born of God.

“ “You can see the miracle that Mr President is doing through the inspiration of God Almighty who brought him to right all the wrongs.

“So, we are taking back this country and giving back this country to Nigerians and that’s what Mr President has come to do and we are just there to give him support.”

As regards the ongoing repair work on the Third Mainland Bridge, Umahi disclosed that it is 99 per cent done.

According to him, once the major work is completed, the bridge will be open in the coming days.

He said, “When you talk about the total rehabilitation of the bridge, you talk about the deck. Mr President has released the money and I can say that 99 per cent of the project is done.

“But what is to be done is additional work: we are putting up solar lights; we are replacing the generator lights with solar lights. The top of the deck is completed, but the main markings are still in progress.

“We are putting up CCTV both on top of the bridge and under the bridge because the president told me that part of the problem we are having is people who are illegally mining the sand. And I agree with him. I have seen it. They even go as far as destroying the concrete to anchor their small boats.”
