The Federal Capital Territory is set for a major facelift as the FCT Administration unveils a two-week project commissioning blitz to celebrate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second anniversary in office.
FCT Minister, Barrister Ezenwo Nyesom Wike, announced the schedule during a press briefing on Saturday, describing the upcoming events as a showcase of President Tinubu’s commitment to rapid infrastructure development.
Among the major projects slated for inauguration are the Arterial Road N16 connecting Maitama and Katampe, the 16-kilometer service carriageway linking OSEX II to Wasa, and the fully renovated International Conference Centre in the heart of the city.
“These are not just projects, they are statements of leadership and transformation,” Wike said. “Under Mr. President, Abuja has witnessed visible change. These developments reflect the Renewed Hope Agenda in action.”
The commissioning activities will stretch across the city center, satellite towns, and rural areas, with a detailed list of projects to be unveiled next week.
Wike also revealed ongoing plans to expand water supply to underserved communities and to intensify road construction and rehabilitation efforts across the capital.
He called on residents to protect the new infrastructure, stressing that “these projects belong to the people and must be preserved for future generations.”
The Minister reaffirmed the FCTA’s resolve to deliver inclusive, people-centered development that improves quality of life across the territory.
