Ubah commends Tinubu for assenting to Southeast Development Commission Bill

The senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, has commended President Bola Tinubu for signing the Southeast Development Commission Bill into law.
Ubah in a press statement praised Tinubu for his commitment to addressing the challenges facing the development of the South East.
The statement, which was signed on Ubah’s behalf by his Special Adviser on Media and Strategic Communications, Mr Kamen Chuks Ogbonna, said the bill would foster rapid development and unity in the region.
He said: “The passage of this bill marks the culmination of the Southeast’s tireless efforts to establish a development commission that will address the region’s critical needs.
“The bill’s signing (into law) reverses the disappointment caused by former President Mohammad Buhari’s denial of assent, which had reinforced feelings of injustice and hindered APC’s progress in the region.
“He commended President Tinubu for paving the way for meaningful collaboration between the Southeast and the federal government, ensuring the region’s growth and prosperity.”
Ubah said the bill aimed to establish a commission responsible for managing funds allocated from the Federation Account for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of roads, houses, and other infrastructural damage suffered by the region due to the civil war.
He said the commission would also tackle ecological problems and related environmental or developmental challenges in Abia, Imo, Enugu, Anambra, and Ebonyi States.
