President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday arrived at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport, Owerri, Imo State, for a one-day working visit.
The presidential aircraft touched down at exactly 12:52 p.m.
During the visit, the President is scheduled to inaugurate key infrastructure projects, including the reconstructed 60-kilometre dual carriage Owerri-Mbaise-Umuahia Federal Road, the Assumpta Flyover, and the newly built 6,000-capacity Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu International Conference Centre, all executed by Governor Hope Uzodimma.
The President will also attend the public presentation of Uzodimma’s book, “A Decade of Impactful Progressive Governance in Nigeria,” which documents Nigeria’s democratic journey and governance achievements under the All Progressives Congress over the past 10 years.
Ahead of the trip, Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, had disclosed that the President would be in Owerri to commission a series of projects and participate in the book launch.
The statement read, “President Bola Tinubu will today pay a working visit to Owerri, Imo State, where he will commission several legacy projects by Governor Hope Uzodinma and launch a book authored by the Governor.
“These projects include the Imo Concorde Hilton Hotel, the Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu International Conference Centre, the Asumpta Flyover, and the state-of-the-art Imo Digital Learning Centre.
“Together, these projects underscore the shared commitment of the Federal and State Governments to infrastructure renewal, modernisation, and sustainable development.”
