Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris in Enugu State on Thursday

The Federal Government has said that the South-East Region is at the Heart of the Visions and Agenda of the President Bola Tinubu led Administration.

The Government stressed that, in the various Reforms, Strategic and Inclusive Leadership of Tinubu, the South-East Region has not and will not be marginalised.

The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, stated this during Citizens’ Engagement with the People of Enugu State on Thursday in Enugu.

The Federal Government Team led by the Minister is embarking on a Three-Day Citizens’ Engagement and Tour of Projects in Enugu and Ebony States.

The Essence of the Tour is to interact directly with Citizens and showcase Ongoing Projects of the President Bola Tinubu-led Administration in the South East Region.

“Nigeria will never go back to that Era where the South-East or certain part of the Country is being treated marginally,” he said

The Minister further explained that, to address Issues of Marginalisation, Tinubu established new Development Commissions for all previously Uncovered Zones, ensuring no Region is left behind.

He added that the President’s Inclusive Governance Style is evident in balanced Appointments and equitable distribution of Projects .

“By the end of Tinubu’s First Term, the Benefits of his Reforms will be clearer.

“The Federal Government remains committed to Transparency, Accountability, and delivering the Dividends of Democracy to all Nigerians.

“With Tinubu, Nigeria is marching towards Prosperity,” Idris said

The Minister added that the Federal Government has rolled out various Empowerment and Humanitarian Programmes to cushion the effects of Fuel Subsidy Removal and other tough but necessary Policies of the Administration.

The Event was attended by different Stakeholders in the State.
