By Collins Yakubu-Hammer
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Mohammed Idris, says the South East Region of the country has a special place in the heart of President Bola Tinubu.
Idris stated this when he paid a courtesy visit to the governor of Enugu State, Mr Peter Mbah, on Thursday in Enugu.
According to Idris, Tinubu is so passionate about the development of the region, delivery of dividends of democracy, and renewing the hope of all the people in the region.
“President Tinubu came to Enugu State in January. He believes that Enugu is a serious State and the governor is doing so well.
“Enugu and the South East Region of the country is in his heart, that was why he visited Enugu earlier this year.
“We also came to see the ongoing project in the South East. We may not be able to tour all of them in one day because there are too many, but we selected a few to go round and see.
“Me and my team will go and see the newly constructed flyover, the Enugu-Port Harcourt Road and many others,” Idris said.
News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that those in the Minister’s team include the Special Assistant on Communications and Strategy to Tinubu, Mr Bayo Onanuga, some Special Assistants, the Managing Director of NAN, Malam Ali M. Ali, the Director-General of Voice of Nigeria, Malam Jibrin Ndace.
Others are the Directors-General of NTA, Malam Salihu Dembos, National Broadcasting Commission, Mr Charlse Ebuebu, the President of Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, Dr Ike Neliaku, the President of RATTAWU, Mr Emeka Kalu, NUJ representative and many others. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
