The Federal Government has refuted a recent statement credited to the governors of south-eastern states, that the region has been shortchanged in the implementation of infrastructural projects by the President Muhammadi Buhari government.

Contrary to their claim, the FG said there were 69 ongoing projects in the region alone.

Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, issued the rebuttal in Ilorin on Thursday, at a lecture by Mr. Festus Keyamo, spokesman for the President Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organization.

”While this claim may have made headlines, it is totally untrue. His Excellencies were either misquoted or they were quoted of context. Either way, this allegation flies in the face of available evidence,” he said.

Mohammed said no part of the country, including the South-east, has been left out, adding that from the proceeds of the 100 billion Naira Sukuk Bond alone, the South-east got 16.6 billion Naira worth of projects, just alike any other zone.

He listed the four projects covered by the Sukuk Bond proceeds in the South-east as Enugu-Port Harcourt Dual Carriageway Section II (Umuahia Tower-Aba Township Rail/Road Bridge Crossing in Abia State; Enugu-Port Harcourt Dual Carriageway Section I (Lokpanta-Umahia Tower) in Abia State; Outstanding section of the Onitsha-Enugu Expressway (Amansea -Enugu State Border) and the Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway Section III(Enugu-Lokpanta) in Enugu State.

The Minister disclosed that he had gone on a media inspection of the roads, as well as the Aba-Port Harcourt section of the Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway and the 2nd Niger Bridge, where the contractor has completed the first three phases of the project.

“In conclusion, the South-east has never had it so good in the area of infrastructure. Had the previous Administrations done even half of what we are doing now in that region, no one will be complaining today. It is alright to ask for more, but it is unfair to say nothing has been done,” he said.
