Everyone now knows Dave Umahi, a smart, industrious and energetic former governor turned minister of works.

Truth be told he did wonders in Abakilik through his well placed road and bridge infrastructures plus Airport. I visited Abaliliki in 2021, one of my maternal uncles is a practicing medical doctor in Abalikili, and then again in 2006, when I visited a friend. Seeing the transformation with bridges was something tangible.

But alas, Ebonyi state doesn’t have the needed human traffic to turn these into a spread effect catalyst. I heard the traffic rate on those bridges and roads are so negligible and you wonder why it was build in the first place.

While growing up we often hear moms talking of Abakiliki rice, though the less preferred for those of us who grew up middle class, but it was something I became proud of, that indeed the Igbos can farm a particular class of crops and have it’s distribution to far mid~westerner part of the country especially when “UNCLE BEST” brand of rice, imported, was more preferred.

Now, given this data, imagine for once what those funds used to build bridges could have done for Ebonyi state in rice farming? I tell you it’s enough to bestow upon every household in Ebonyi state small modern rice milling machines, packaging kits for 500 bags and also to employ 5000 professional rice millers from Asia for 2 years who will teach and help ordinary Ebonyi farmers process and package the farmed rice for local export to other states. The knowledge transfer would be mighty.

After two years the Asians are free to leave. But I tell you, 50% will stay and start their own farms and processing and additional 500 Asians will migrate to Ebonyi for same venture.

But this man couldn’t see beyond his nose because he is consumed by Emilokan brand of politics of always been in power.

Now Ebonyi is in a financial mess. Loans collected to build bridges are failing, current handpicked governor can’t do anything beyond payment of salary to workers and hanger on.

Then came the Coastal Highway of Fraud! Umahi systematically dropped two quotes that would protect him in future:

1. The coastal highway project has failed. To be rerouted. He probably was briefed and realised the criminal implications, quickly informed the public. In his mind , ministers don’t aware projects, they only get it done!

2. A 15 trillion naira project has no engineering design, EIA etc. So on what strength was the contract awarded? Never mind that the BPE and other checks and balance vetting agencies never submitted approval for the project because they would actually need an EIA as well as engineering designs to approve. Since none was available, they simply pass back to do what they wanted!

Umahi actually just made the job of prosecutors easier in 2027. It’s quite clear that the coastal highway project was a hoax designed to claw money and settle international criminal cartels to the heroin trafficker in Aso Rock.


Please don’t blame Umahi, he is a good learner. He saw how those who urged Emefiele on abandoned him. And given his ego, he just won’t be Emefiele part 2 in 2027!

Yekini Sangodele is finished as a politician,

Umahi is going to jail whether he likes it or not

Those two information given by Umahi are just about the insurance policy he has bought himself should there be a probe for fraud in the 15 trillion naira squeaky Coastal highway of tinubu fraud!

First, we do where our power reach even though we pay the criminal cartel full 15 trillion naira. Coastal highway of fraud ends in Ogun. We are rerouting it through inland!

Secondly, a 15 trillion naira project of such magnitude has no engineering design nor EiA done for it……mehnnnnn.

If your property Dey that route, and they collected it from you……these two information are absolutely proofs of malicious dispossession of your properties by tinubu! Don’t sue now. Wait till the heroin trafficker leaves in 2027.

In the nutshell, Umahi is saying my own hand no Dey ohh, all the projects i do for Ebonyi state has EiA and engineering designs before I awarded them. As a minister I didn award the project, I only supervise the work. If you need those who awarded it they’re in the presidency.

If you are looking for who to catch, go to those who awarded the contract!


Umahi you rugged!

Sirianese:
Umahi is going to jail whether he likes it or not

He will not. This is not because i like or support him, but look closely at the circumstances.

Ministers don’t have deeper powers like CBN governors.

Ministers are like workers employed to supervise, not to do actual work.

Their employers award contracts and get them to supervise the contractors. If the employer, Tinubu, decides to float Nigerian laws to award the contract, how does this become the supervisor responsibility?


You see, he is already planning his escape route which will be very simple!

Sirianese:

We will furnish Maiduguri jail for him. Imagine all the properties destroyed in Lagos, Lekki, and creating avoidable flooding around safe corridors and water drains. When reasonable minds advise him, he will abuse them.
Now see the nonsense he created on the 51 years old Niger Bridge

#Rig&BeKeed

All the ministers i heard are now looting what they can and planning their escape route!

Umahi is just too vocal on his own, but I perfectly understand, he is supposed to be the supervisor of a gigantic project which in disguise was. The greatest fraud ever committed in broad day light.

Even the military won’t be this engendered!

Yes, Umahi bears some liabilities for using his office In complicity to ensure a fraud pulls through. It bothers to criminal and civil.

But are victims ready to fix him? Are the courts really independent to fix him? Are the prosecutors ready to fix him?

Nigerian is just one crazy Aegean stable that needs a thorough deep washing!

Same way they are running nigeria without a plan... anywhere belle face

Very anyhow people

That is why Bola and his looting gang are ready to do anything humanly and spiritually possible to rig 2027 Presidential election because they know that their life, their corrupt investments and their whole politically accumulated illicit wealth is in danger should they lose the 2027 Presidential election to the opposition

Umahi will be given medicine that’ll make him vomit all the yams he ate and more.

That man will not escape what’s coming for him so far he’s still alive.

Guyman wan cover his head, the elections loss is obvious.

Dave Umahi will teach you Obi followers a bitter leason in 2027.. probably your Agulu fraud will win Anambra, Imo and Abia while PBAT will win in Ebonyi and Enugu, giving him way more than the required 25% in South East, something that proved difficult in 2023.

Umahi is a force to reckon with in Ebonyi and Enugu whic most of you are aware of, reason you lots have been going about abusing him because he is not supporting your Obi. Don't worry, y'all will rest after 2027 after suffering defeat like you did in 2023.

No joking, there is a 99.9% probability that u will go to prison b4 him.

Umahi you rugged![/quote

Some of u have serious problem honestly. Umahi never said d coastal road has NO EiA report. He said d entire 700km road doesn't have a single EiA but it has different EiAs for different sections. But u all ran with d wrong headline by Punch newspaper that d road has no single EiA. That's why sometimes politicians see u make blunders and ask u to go to court. When u get to court and d judge interprets d correct thing, that d road has several EiAs for diff sections and not a single EiA for all 700km, u will scream d judges have been bought.

They’re practically guaranteed to be in charge of everything in 2027. AcadaWriter

Tinubu wife saved minister David Umahi from molestation & sack on Friday. Well, he got a tiny bit of what he deserve.

The DSS were furious that Umahi tried to escalate their trip by inviting p Tinubu to commission a project. Umahi knew that such arrangements weren't in their intinary hence the DSS were.

Tinubu high on the pills RAT was popping on his mouth!

Umahi sef!
