President Bola Tinubu will visit Imo State on Tuesday, 30 September 2025, to commission a string of infrastructure projects completed by Governor Hope Uzodimma’s administration.
The President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed the visit in a statement on Friday.
Governor Uzodimma, in a separate message, described the forthcoming visit as “a moment of great joy and deep honour” for the people of Imo.
Projects on the line-up
According to the governor, Tinubu will commission:
The fully rebuilt Owerri–Mbaise–Obowo–Umuahia Road
A brand-new flyover linking Port Harcourt and Onitsha Roads, with upgraded works around Assumpta Cathedral Roundabout
The Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu International Conference Centre in Owerri
“These projects are transformative and will change the face of our state,” Uzodimma said.
Book launch on APC’s decade in power
During the visit, the President will also unveil Uzodimma’s latest book, “A Decade of Impactful Progressive Governance in Nigeria,” a reflection on the 10-year journey of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in national leadership since 2015.
Both Tinubu and Uzodimma are senior members of the APC, which secured federal power for the first time under Muhammadu Buhari after the 2015 elections.
Second visit in 2025
This will be Tinubu’s second official trip to Imo State in 2025. His last was in January, when he attended Uzodimma’s swearing-in for a second term.
The visit had initially been scheduled for August to commission what the state government described as “legacy projects” but was later postponed.
