The Coalition of United Political Parties has commended President Bola Tinubu’s administration for its impressive road infrastructure projects nationwide.

CUPP said this, following an inspection of the Abuja-Lokoja-Benin Road, among others, on Saturday.

It said that the coalition rated the current administration “very good” in the area of road infrastructure.

The coalition stated that the opposition parties reached this conclusion after a thorough assessment of the work done in various sectors of the Nigerian economy over the last two years.

According to him, members of the CUPP steering committee were on an independent inspection mission. It stated that their intention was to travel independently to assess the situation across key zones, thereby countering the federal government’s propaganda in that sector.

”They, however, affirmed that what they met on the ground was so impressive that there was no way anyone who had the interest of the country at heart would play politics with such positive findings,” said CUPP.

On the inspection tour were CUPP’s steering committee members Emeka Igwe, Grace Ishaku, Abayọmi Runsewe, Abbah Lewis, and Mark Adebayo. According to the statement, the CUPP steering committee conducted a field assessment of select road projects nationwide.

”As 2025 draws to a close, coalition members have been analysing work done in various sectors of the Nigerian economy under the current administration. This is necessary for constructive criticism of the activities of the Federal Government and to task both leaders and the electorate ahead of the 2027 election,” the opposition alliance stated.

The opposition spokesperson stated that the intention was to distinguish between facts and government propaganda.

“We might have set out initially to puncture claims of achievements by the All Progressives Congress government, especially in infrastructure development, but the impression we got in this first phase of our nationwide inspection was very positive.

“To foster the kind of development that citizens desire for Nigeria, opposition members must acknowledge when something is being done right,” said CUPP.
