Former Vice President and Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate for the 2023 general election, Atiku Abubakar, has chastised President Bola Tinubu's administration for awarding the 700-kilometre Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway project to Hitech Construction Company Limited “without any evidence of competitive bidding or a decision by the Federal Executive Council (FEC)”.
