Umahi writes Buhari, seeks financial support to complete Ebonyi airport

Ebonyi state governor Umahi has written to president Buhari for funds to be able to complete the airport project he embarked on in the state.

The project appears to have been stalled due to resources. This prompted the state governor to appeal to president Muhammadu Buhari for financial assistance.

5. PRAYER I plead with you for your kind help in recommending to Mr. President to assist us when Mr. President refers our letter to you. Recall all your assistance to us towards the realization of this project. This your latest anticipated assistance will help to complete the airport and will allow Mr. President and you to commission the project to the credit of Mr. President administration.
