Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, said reviving and completing capital projects abandoned under previous administrations for decades was the hallmark of his three-year tenure.
Wike said his administration’s focus on reviving abandoned projects, completing critical infrastructure, and delivering new projects had transformed Abuja since he assumed office.
He made the remarks on Saturday after inspecting major infrastructure projects across Abuja, as he reflected on achievements recorded since Aug. 21, 2023.
To document the achievements, Wike announced plans by the FCT Administration to publish a comprehensive report on projects completed and initiated during his tenure.
He said the publication would detail projects inherited and completed, as well as new projects awarded under his administration.
Wike said his team had remained committed to its mandate despite initial challenges, adding that residents could attest to the changes recorded across the FCT.
“I am happy that in these three years in office, our team has remained completely committed to doing the job.
“Challenges have come, but we have been able to surmount them.
“The residents of the FCT can attest and testify that indeed things have changed for the better,” he said.
The minister said the administration had prioritized aggressive infrastructure delivery, urban renewal, and completion of critical projects to change the narrative about Abuja
