Tinubu Begins Nationwide Project Inauguration

President Bola Tinubu, on Saturday, left Abuja for Lagos to commence the commissioning of projects completed under his administration.

Lagos is the president’s first point of call as other projects commissioning will take him to other parts of the country during the week – beginning Sunday (tomorrow) till Friday.

This is to mark the first anniversary of his administration on Wednesday, May 29.

A State House press statement titled, “President Tinubu Set To Inaugurate Projects To Mark One Year In Office,” and signed by the Special Adviser Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga disclosed this.

“In Lagos on Sunday, the President will inaugurate the concrete-paved road to the nation’s major ports in Apapa and Tin Can Island. The reconstructed road which began under the Muhammadu Buhari Administration was financed by the Dangote Group, using its tax credits.

“On the same day, President Tinubu will formally inaugurate, by virtual means, the refurbished Third Mainland Bridge, which has drawn public acclaim for its excellent finishing and aesthetic furnishing.

“He will also commission, virtually, the rehabilitation of 330 roads and bridges across the country.

“The high point of the President’s engagements on Sunday will be the inauguration of the iconic Lagos-Calabar Superhighway, estimated to cost about N15 trillion,” it read.

The statement further read that work has started on the legacy project that will connect nine coastal states, with Section Two already awarded to Hitech Construction Limited.

It added that Tinubu will return to Abuja on Tuesday to continue the commissioning spree.
