Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Project –
Leave President Tinubu Alone, Face Your 2027 Presidential Ambition – Ibadan Based Property Merchant Tells Atiku
An Elder Statesman and property merchant, Alhaji Sufianu Kazeem has told former Vice President, Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, to desist from fueling unnecessary crisis against the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu led Federal Government.
Alhaji Kazeem popularly called Sukazeem in a release on Thursday in Ibadan by his media office said if the former number two man in Nigeria is such proud and arrogant to see the good things in supporting the Lagos-Calabar coastal project, then he should keep quite and stop riding on Nigerians as fool.
Alhaji Kazeem said instead for Atiku to back President Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government and the Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi, to deliver a good project for Nigerians, he has been jumping from poles to pillars condemning every actions of the government all because of his already failed 2027 ambition.
He said many of the ongoing projects ware inherited from the last administration and it is expected such project must be concluded
According to the elder statesman, ‘few years ago, on a national television, Atiku was heard saying if he becomes the President of Nigeria, he will enriched his family and friends, why then he continued to be making noise on the contractor handling projects of the federal government.
‘If Atiku can be bold to say, he will give projects to his friends, is he now expecting President Tinubu to give projects to his enemies?’
Alhaji Sufianu Kazeem warns Atiku not to distract the present government but focus on his Ambition which his pushing him all around to the extent of making him to loose focus on the right thing to do.
Atiku had recently condemned claims being made by President Bola Tinubu-led administration about the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Project.
Atiku described the project as wasteful and a highway to fraud while responding to claims by works minister, Umahi, that the 700km Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will tentatively cost N15.6 trillion.
He added that no doubt the specter haunting the opposition, particularly about President Tinubu’s prospective legacy in presiding over the project’s completion before the 2027 elections under the aegis of Minister Of Works, Senator David Umahi, poses a cogent threat to Atiku Abubakar’s final bid for the presidential mantle in 2027.
