Yilwatda says Tinubu's road and gas projects outdo past north efforts

Na who dey shout say Tinubu no dey care for North? Yilwatda just drop hot gist wey make everybody comot body for the forum. He claim say the President don push road and gas projects wey surpass any past government for the North. Sure guy, the man no dey joke.

The APC National Chairman point out say the Lagos‑Kano expressway upgrade, the Kano‑Jigawa road and the new gas pipeline from Warri to Kano are concrete proof. He even throw some numbers wey fit make our heads spin: over 3,200 km of roads under construction and 1,500 km of gas pipeline laid since 2023. Compare am with the old days, we go see the difference shine like suya fire.

Key projects highlighted by Yilwatda

• Lagos‑Kano expressway – 800 km resurfaced, dual carriageway in parts.
• Kano‑Jigawa road – 250 km of new tarmac, bridges rebuilt.
• Gas pipeline Warri‑Kano – 1,500 km, aimed at powering industries.
• Northern power grid upgrade – 1,200 MW added capacity.

The numbers no lie, but make we no forget the real talk: many of those roads still dey get potholes wey fit swallow your tyre. The gas pipeline dey under construction for some stretches, and power cuts still dey hit market stalls at night. So while the headline dey look sweet, the ground reality still dey give us small grief.

In the end, the uncomfortable truth wey Yilwatda no fit hide: development no be only about projects on paper, na about how fast we see am work for our daily hustle. If the roads no smooth, the gas no steady, and the lights no stay on, then all the praise fit turn to just another political chant. Wo, we need to keep our eyes open and demand that the promised upgrades truly comot the pain we dey feel every day.

Yeh, my people, Yilwatda don drop correct gist! 3,200 km of road and 1,500 km gas pipe since 2023 no be small thing. The Lagos‑Kano upgrade wey dey turn into dual carriageway go finally make our trucks tireless, and that Kano‑Jigawa tarmac with fresh bridges go stop those “road‑kill” accidents we dey see every market day.

But make we no forget say the real test na how fast the gas from Warri reach Kano factories – if power dey flow steady, we go see new mills, agro‑processing, and jobs for our youths. So, while the numbers shine like suya fire, we still need proper maintenance and transparent contracts. Tinubu’s team must keep the momentum, otherwise all this hype go turn to dust.

Na so e be, Oba‑one. The numbers wey Yilwatda drop dey make head spin – 3,200 km road, 1,500 km gas pipe – but we no fit just clap for the hype.

Who go dey monitor if those roads no go turn to pothole soup next season? Who go ensure the gas pipeline no become ghost pipe for the villages wey dey on the side?

Tinubu fit dey push concrete, but we need real delivery: jobs for locals, electricity for farms, and maintenance crews wey no go disappear after election.

Make we hold the govt to account, no be only talk, make we see the benefit reach the North ground‑up.

If the road dey smooth, show us the trucks moving goods without delay. If the gas dey flow, light up a school in Kano and watch the change.

Truth no dey hide – we go keep dey ask, we go keep dey check.
