Olawale Ajimotokan reports from Abuja that Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Ezenwo Nyesom Wike has promised to finish the long-neglected Gwagwalada Mini-Stadium in Gwagwalada Area Council. The stadium, a source of frustration for many young residents, would provide a venue for sports and potential pathways to national and international competitions.
During a town hall meeting, Wike emphasized that the youths were not asking for much, merely a place to play football at any time. He assured completion of the project, stating "We will make sure we come back and complete it." This pledge aims to address the lack of recreational sports facilities for the youth and promote grassroots sports development.
The meeting also allowed residents to voice other concerns, including the relocation of an abattoir and road construction projects.
