| Reuben Abati Challenges Umahi Over Tinubu Posters on Niger Bridge |
Popular news anchor Reuben Abati has openly disagreed with the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, over his directive to decorate the First Niger Bridge with posters of President Bola Tinubu.
Speaking during an online news broadcast on Thursday, Abati described the order as discriminatory, especially as the country prepares for the 2027 general elections.
His reaction followed Umahi’s instruction given on Wednesday during an inspection of repair work on the bridge.
Abati argued that if political posters are allowed on the bridge, all candidates from different political parties should have equal space to display theirs, rather than giving one person a monopoly.
He stressed that the money used by the Ministry of Works to repair the bridge belongs to all Nigerian taxpayers, meaning the public infrastructure should not be reserved exclusively for the ruling party or a single candidate.
