The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, inspected ongoing road construction projects across Abuja on Wednesday, promising their timely completion.
Wike visited major sites managed by CGC, Arab Contractors, and Gilmor, including the Airport Road-Kuje junction and key interchanges.
He expressed satisfaction with the progress and pledged that all projects would be completed by May 2026, coinciding with the third anniversary of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
“The job ought to be handed over by the end of May at the latest. We will come by from time to time to make sure we put the heat on them.
“They are also putting the heat on us to make sure that the available resources they don’t have, they would not lack. We have already made a promise to the President that these projects will be inaugurated on his third anniversary,” Wike said.
He commended contractors for providing alternative access routes for residents during construction, noting that the welfare of project beneficiaries remained a priority.
Wike who spoke on the PDP internal disputes, asserted that the party remains “alive and kicking” despite ongoing legal challenges.
