The Minister of Works, Senator Dave Umahi, has dismissed as false and misleading a recent publication alleging that the Southeast region has been neglected in federal road infrastructure development.
The rebuttal was contained in a statement released on Monday by the Director of Press and Public Relations in the Ministry of Works, Mohammed Ahmed.
Umahi described the article, authored by Linus Anagboso, also known as D-Big Pen, and titled “The Politics of Asphalt: Why is the Southeast Missing from the Map?”, as mischievous and deceptive.
