The Renewed Hope Ambassadors (RHA) says President Bola Tinubu has delivered transformative projects across Northern Nigeria in line with his campaign promises.
The group said this against claims in some quarters that the administration had neglected the North.
This is contained in a statement by Mr Tunde Rahman, Director of Media and Publicity, Renewed Hope Ambassadors, after a media tour of Federal Government projects in the North-West.
The tour was organised by the RHA in collaboration with the Presidential Media Team.
According to the group, the inspection covered projects from Zuba Junction in the Federal Capital Territory to Kaduna, Kano, Jigawa and Kebbi states.
The RHA said the Federal Government, through the Ministry of Works, had embarked on 260 Special Intervention Projects nationwide.
It added that 48 of the projects are located in the North-West, the highest among the six geopolitical zones.
“This is evidence of President Tinubu’s commitment to the development and transformation of the northern region,” the group said.
The RHA noted that the projects would boost transportation, trade, agriculture and economic growth.
The delegation inspected the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano highway, where reconstruction with concrete pavement and solar-powered streetlights is ongoing.
It said Section One of the project, stretching from Zuba Junction to beyond Jere, was nearing completion.
In Kaduna, the team visited the 21-kilometre Kaduna Western Bypass, a project abandoned for over 22 years, noting that the project had reached about 50 per cent completion.

The delegation also inspected the Kaduna-Kano-Katsina-Maradi railway project linking Northern states with Niger Republic.
According to the RHA, the flyover component in Kaduna is expected to be completed by December.
In Kano, the team inspected projects at Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, including a cardiovascular centre, paediatric centre and students’ hostel.
Other inspected projects included the N27 billion irrigation project in Garko, a solar energy project and a 10-hectare Agricultural Incubation Centre at Bayero University Kano.
The delegation also visited the headquarters of the North-West Development Commission and an erosion control project in the Wujuwuju-Jakara axis of Kano.
In Jigawa, the group said work on the railway project section was nearing completion.
The RHA also inspected sections of the Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway in Kebbi.
It said construction activities, including concrete pavement and streetlight installation, were progressing steadily.
“With these projects among others under construction and at various stages of completion in the North-West and across the Northern region, the development of the North seems assured,” the RHA said.
The group urged critics of the administration to inspect the projects themselves, stressing that the Tinubu administration had “kept faith with the North.”
