Tinubu names Abuja highway after Chinua Achebe
President Bola Tinubu has approved the naming of the M18 road infrastructure in Guzape District, Abuja, after the great novelist Chinua Achebe.
Tinubu made this statement during the road’s inauguration ceremony in Abuja on Saturday. Olusegun Dada, President Tinubu’s Special Assistant on Social Media, stated this in a post.
He wrote: “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Commissions the M18 road infrastructure in Guzape District of Abuja. Names road after Nigerian Novelist and Poet, late Professor Chinua Achebe.”
