Why We Turned Abuja Into Construction Site – Wike
Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike has said the decision of President Bola Tinubu to turn the nation’s capital, Abuja, into a huge construction site is to ensure that his Renewed Hope Agenda find immediate expression in the lives of residents even before his first anniversary in office.
Wike disclosed this on Saturday after he inspected several ongoing projects across the city.
The minister who expressed delight at the pace of work in the various sites, said some of the projects are nearing completion.
He said these projects are also included in the statutory budget of 2024 which will soon be submitted to the National Assembly by the President when he returns from Qatar.
Earlier, Executive Secretary, Federal Capital Development Authority, Shehu Hadi Ahmad said the Administration is currently constructing 11 kilometres of the 76-kilometre Kuje-Gwargwada-Rubochi-Abaji-Nasarawa six-lane highway.
