David Umahi, minister of works, says President Bola Tinubu will govern the country for eight years.

Umahi spoke when he appeared on Sunday Politics, a Channels Television programme.

The former governor of Ebonyi state said Tinubu’s presidential election victory in 2023 was “divine”.

He said the president is working hard to right the wrongs of the past and hand the country back to the citizens.

“You called me a pastor but I am also a prophet and you must know the coming of Mr President is divine and when God starts a thing he completes it,” the minister said.

“I strongly believe and I am persuaded to let you know that God told me that this administration will last eight years because this administration is born of God and you can see the miracles that Mr President is doing to right all the wrongs.

“He is giving back this country to Nigerians and that is simply what Mr President has come to do. We are just there to support him.”

He also said some national assembly members are “very” critical of concrete technology proposed for some road projects across the country.

“On the technology of concrete (for roads), I am very happy that the national assembly members — some of them are very critical of the technology of concrete,” he said.
