[Full briefing] Why Nigeria Must Embrace Concrete Roads - Umahi 

When you appoint a civil engineer and a lawyer by training as ministers of work the results are different. This man knows his work.

By the time Engineers Umahi is done, Nigeria’s road will be top notch

This MAN is the best Minister under this government.... He practically go on site to see the quality of jobs done. Right now the ongoing Benin/Sapele road is concrete based.

This guy must have been very bright from school days

Your doing well Engineer David Nwaeze Umahi is the best minister .he knows what he is doing .

We see your work. That's what it takes to appoint competent persons into positions of authority.

I am convinced this guy is very knowledgeable. May Allah continue to quide him. Amen.

The best man for the job

This man is brilliant. Kudos ❤

umehi remember south east ooo please don't behave like amechi, you have only 4yrs is not too long, thanks for the good works your doing

Mr. David Umahi, I have confidence that you will succeed, remember Àba to Owerri federal highway, and Onicha to Owerri highway, Umauahia to Owerri federal road is in terrible conditions. Please build our highways with concrete. Thank you.

This man is by far the best minister of work Nigeria has ever had. A very good man he is. May God bless David Umahi

Concrete is better. It is what's used in building American freeways. It has to be a certain minimum thickness with proper reinforcements, though.

No book, just fluent, it's different with this man.

Nigeria should also embrace MAINTENANCE CULTURE as well... that is another underlining issue with Nigeria in general, there is no maintenance culture at all... that is one of the major factors why Nigeria road networks are horrible

My governor u will be next Nigeria president, uchechukwu peter lgwe from lshielu

I love this man with all my hearts ❤❤❤❤🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬✍️✍️

Umahi for president

The only working minister in Nigeria

I love this man joor

I really agree and support you engr.Dave umahi,may your tenure be long with blessings and greater success.Ministry of works should be showing us the progress of all this ongoing works the minister is talking about,otherwise Nigerians will think its just talk and promises as always..l strongly think the coastal roads should go through ondo south (araromi ekitipupa area) from lekki to warri...That would literally mean lagos sagamu highway for those going to benin,Asaba,onitsha,awka,enugu while the coastal highway for those traveling to delta,bayelsa,portharcout,Aba,uyo and calabar....And l think it would be cheaper and quicker too going through lekki, ondo south to warri..Thank you.

If a country don't have maintenance culture don't embrace concrete road , If the road are abandoned like previous road when those concrete rod get rusted, vehicle can't ply those road.

Concrete or no concrete please remember Abakaliki Abaomege Afikpo Federal Road and Afikpo Okigwe Federal Road. And Ugep Itigidi Abaomege federal Road to Calabar. Thank you.

Its a shame a country with abundant crude oil dosent have asphelt a bye product from petroleum Refineries to make roads. These are the harms of importing petro because you will also import Asphelt at a very high coast in view of its weight.

Good man, nice man, we are seeing your good work, May Almighty God continue to guard and guide you

South East Asset.... Good job.....best governor in South East during his time

Umahi, you are good

If all the abandoned projects re in ss and se then that shows how fashola handled the ministry as a typical yorubaman

Umahiiiiiiiiii 🎉❤

Concrete road is very expensive but last longer, Europe don’t use concrete road but the US does

The best minister of works up-to date. The right man for the right job.

Do Owerri to Umauahia, Owerri to Onicha and Owerri to Àba highways, in terrible condition. Use concrete to build all our federal highways.

This man really knows his job. The best appointment Tinubu made in his cabinet.

❤❤❤❤

Sir, let every federal road be dualise to 6 lanes for each side. That's how it is in other countries of the world.

Your problem should not be money but sustainability and durability. Tell your president to help us produce and export to bring in more dollars and income to the country

Devil Umaru , Concrete roads is Good 👍, our aims is to see our Roads looking good 👍....We need Nigercem cement industries to resume work. Why must Dangote is allowed to produce cement in Nigerian? Why ibeto cement was closed down by Late Buhari?

This is The 1st TIME since 1960..That we Have a competent..Minister of Works...Shame.on Buhari..8 yrs..had a Lawyer..Fashola..The Goodluck Johnathan had another Nonsense. MINISTER...see The Money wasted in 24 yrs due to having the wrong people as Minister of works

More strength sir

Too many you know, you know, well I hope you know what you are doing Minister Umahi.

This minister know his job very well thank you sir. Mr President appointed 2 senators NLC rejected one for Labour because he refused to increase their salary by and he left. 😅😅😅

You know your job.. keep it up... We are seeing it..

thanks my uncle

This is why cement is very cost, because the road construction firm is now buying all available cement.

The minister need to build flyover @ ziks round about onitsha, Ekeobinagu juction in Enugu, please

Please Sir Ore road please

Continue with good y is your strength...but I discover that there more profit in working in federal than state, looking at wike and Umatilla they are more healthy than the time they governor

It depends if it's the cheapest. Because right now the fed govt is totally bankrupt.

This Minister is clueless. Go look at the airport he built in Ebonyi State; fancy but not operational because his company which he awarded the contract did a poor job. The present Governor is re-doing through the same useless company. Don’t be deceived, go do your research.

Inoo inoo inno

Umahi should understand that the contraption called Nigeria hates an honest and intelligent man. Umahi should be careful in being honest with Nigeria.

So you are confirming that southeast has been marginalized in tern of road project. Same road you will use when your tenure ends. Continue.

With due apology to the Minister, though an Engineer, he is saying rubbish regarding the design of highways pavement whether flexible (asphalt) or rigid pavement (concrete). There are lot of factors that determines what pavement should be used. In addition, it is not strictly true that the design life of a rigid pavement is 40 years. The problem , we have is that the highways in Nigeria are not adequately planned,designed and constructed.

Devul Umahi, man who betrayed his people is talking. He’s prayers was for his gods to Bring someone like buhari to rule his future and his family. Well done. Giant liar.

Talk Talk Talk you're not performing anything sharing formula going on under the table

UMAHI should talk about the project and stop including "Mr President" in his speeches. We all no say we not get a serious president. He has surrounded himself with ANT infested firewood and invited lizards into his administration. All your work can not erase the damage. Nah to remove the ants and lizards 😂😂😂

So no southeast? You see your life? Thunder is coming, it ll' choose to strike you

Most corrupt minister

Concrete road is not the best, Asphalt breath and make way for repair, how are you going to repair concrete if there's a hole unter it?. For light vehicle's is OK, but for heavy trucks very Bad.

BIAFRAN'S SELF REFERENDUM is Here. VOTE FOR Biafran's FREEDOM and RESTORATION of UNITED STATES of BIAFRA

Tranport minister is not doing enough in eastern railrine. He is sleeping bc they always have entittled mentality believing nothing will happen to him just the way yorubas believe they re untouchable. Economy minister should have been fired if he is igbo even CBN governor.

This minister and the minister of interior are the reason why I decided to endure this government of Tinubu. Election riggers nothing good will come out of Tinubu government, it has begun with the lost of super eagles to Ivory Coast. No man on earth will escape natural justice. As long as Tinubu is sitting on the seat he did not deserve and win, his government will end up in crisis.
