Recall that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sworn in new Ministers into office after the upper chamber of the national assembly screened and confirmed them few weeks ago. The new Ministers have since assumed office in their respective Ministries.
The Daily Post paper reported that Benjamin Okah, during the press briefing said that “it was the turn of the Ebonyi Central senatorial zone to produce a minister in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration but decided to cede the position to former governor David Umahi.”
He added; “the purpose of ceding Ebonyi Central’s chance to the former governor was because of the firm belief that Umahi wouldn’t disappoint the Southeast region, especially in delivering quality infrastructure for the country.”

The outspoken politician stated further; “Nigerians will see a great difference in terms of delivering quality infrastructural development, especially roads, under David Umahi as Minister of Works. Igbos have always performed very well in every ministry given to them.”
He noted “We are not happy that only five ministerial positions were given to the Southeast. We believe that President Tinubu will consider Southeast in other major appointments,”
