The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Mr Nyesom Wike, has declared that President Bola Tinubu's administration has fundamentally transformed infrastructure development in the nation's capital. Addressing journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, Wike inspected several ongoing road projects designed to alleviate congestion and spur growth across the territory.
The minister noted the construction of Arterial Road SI from Ring Road II to Arterial Road S20, Collector Road C2 from Life Camp to Arterial Road N5, Arterial Road N16 from Ring Road II to Ring Road III, and the renovation of the IBB Golf Course. Wike expressed satisfaction with the pace of work and the quality of execution, stating that the administration remains on track to deliver these projects before the 2027 general elections, despite the challenging terrain and heavy bridge construction on the Arterial Road N16.
He also affirmed that the IBB Golf Course would be fully operational by November. Regarding funding, Wike reported that the 2026 capital budget had reached 60% performance, despite initial delays in budget release that briefly impacted contractor payments. However, he dismissed political rhetoric surrounding the upcoming election, urging candidates to focus on presenting their records to voters instead.
