The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 general election, Atiku Abubakar, has dared President Bola Tinubu to disclose the full cost of the Lagos-Calabar highway project.
Atiku said in a statement on Tuesday that the Tinubu administration could not continue to keep silent on how much public funds would be spent on the project at a time when Nigeria was still facing dire economic challenges.
The PUNCH reports that the Federal Government recently announced the start of construction on the 700km Lagos-Calabar coastal highway.
The Minister of Works, David Umahi, revealed this in a statement last week by his Special Adviser on Media, Orji Uchenna, in Abuja.
