Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has accused former Anambra State Governor and presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 presidential, Peter Obi, of inciting the Igbo people and other uninformed Nigerians against the administration of President Bola Tinubu over his (Obi’s) stance against the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway.
Umahi who made the allegations on Wednesday while speaking during the flag off of compensation for owners of property affected by the highway project, claimed that Obi did not have the interest of the country at heart and would not fight for the people after getting them into trouble.
Obi has been vociferous in condemning the multi-billion dollars project as well as the demolition of properties along the corridor to pave way for work to commence.
