Federal Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, was not a happy man. He visited one of his numerous federal road projects and was dissatisfied with the quality and pace of work. So he did what few, if any ministers had done before him. He physically entered the road being built to show the foreign contractors the RIGHT WAY to build it, threatening that if they fail to follow his exact instructions henceforth, he would cancel their contract immediately and kick them out of the country. This is the new Nigeria we want to see, and this is the new Nigeria we have. COMPETENCE is the name of the game today in Nigeria. If you like, call yourself oyinbo or ''expatriate''. If you don't deliver, we cancel you and kick you out. Full Video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=253rdc68FgE

I won't be surprised if some set of people still condemn this action by saying it was a show of eye servicing, blaming Tinubu and bla bla bla |

The gullible would believe and praise this story. As a minister, his anger should be at the Ministry's Project Supervisory Team who are supposed to continuously monitor projects to ensure the contractors maintain the required standards. What the minister did there was just for photo-ops.. Let's get serious as a people.. please. P S: I saw so many mentions about my post above. Many seem to have suspended the use of their brains on the altar of politics.. Check my post again. My point is the video should show him calling out his supervisory team.. how many length of road can he measure by himself.. how many days can he be on the road taking measurements. He has a Supervisory team that report to him on a daily basis. And like many people pointed out, contractors make it a point of duty to first compromise Supervisory Teams.. he should be seen making example of those ones that are clearly compromised so the numerous others can take a cue. That's how to build a corrupt-free Work team, and ensure contractors deliver as agreed without all these unnecessary camera parade. |

When you put an Engineer in engineering-related job, he will know what to do, when you put a doctor in medical field, he knows what to do. How will you put a lawyer to head works, power and housing? That was why fashola in Buhari's unfortunate, ill-fated govt was the worst minister in the history of Nigeria ![]() |

Why does Nigeria government contract all of our infrastructure to Foreigners? Are we chunking out incompetence graduates yearly since forever? |

I don't know why politicians deliberately appoint incompetent people. What if all ministries had Umahis spread across them? |

All for camera,we know...just because he has been criticized recently.. |
| Re: Angry Dave Umahi Shows A Foreign Contractor How To Do His Job, On Site by Kingpele(m): 9:18am On Jan 17, 2025 |
Paparazzi.. I agree that umahi is a hard working minister but teaching contractors how to do their job while camera is on ,is not necessary....if they are not competent cancel the contract and give it to someone more competent....again it's his Duty to contact competent contractors |

Topman7:The person you quoted was actually right. The monitoring team are supposed to enforce standards. If they are not doing their job, they should be queried. What is their job again ![]() I agree, this is just for photo - ops. |
