The FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said he will request President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s presence at the FCT Area Council to commission completed infrastructure projects during the celebration of the president’s second year in office.
Wike disclosed this while addressing journalists shortly after a routine inspection of ongoing infrastructure projects, across Gwagwalada, Kwali, and Bwari Area Councils of the FCT slated for commissioning in May to commemorate President Tinubu’s second-year anniversary on Saturday.
He expressed optimism that the president’s visit to the FCT Area Councils will strengthen ties with the people at the grassroots, adding that they will have the opportunity to see their president in person.
The minister said, “We are going to work that out. At least he (Mr President) should be able to go to one of the area councils and let the people see that yes, this is their president, not just commissioning roads in the cities.
“We will plead that he visits at least one or two area councils. We can assure you that he will at least go to Gwagwalada, go to Kwali or Bwari where we have the Law School. We are going to make sure that Mr President comes to identify with his people,” Wike stressed.
