Wike Unstoppable: FCT Enters Day 6 Of Back-to-back Project Flag-offs by Spotlight001(op): 7:51am On Sep 30, 2025
Today, the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, flagged off the construction of a road project from the Bill Clinton Drive of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport to the Tunga Madaki community in Abuja.

The road will link 10 communities with the airport road and will also extend to Zuba Road in future.

Speaking at the flag-off ceremony in Abuja on Monday, September 29, 2025, the FCT Minister emphasized that the project, which will bypass the Airport's second runway, is a direct fulfillment of a promise made by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, to the nine affected communities within the airport precinct that gave up their land for the construction of the second runway.

The Minister said, "One of the things that the communities asked for is that they had to be connected and linked up with roads; it would be quite unfair that their land was collected for a second runway, yet they have no access to even go to the airport. It does not make sense. I had to take this matter to the President, and Mr. President said, ‘Whatever they ask for, give it to them’.”

Wike stressed that the road project embodies the essence of the Renewed Hope Agenda, demonstrating that the President Tinubu administration is a "listening government" that cares for the people and fulfills its promises. He noted that the road will bring development to nine previously underserved communities linked by the project.

He said, “For the first time in your life, you have come to a government, and the government said, what do you want? The only request you have made is a reasonable request. We must attend to you, and today we are attending to you. What does this show? It shows you that the government of Mr. President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is a listening government, it’s a government that cares for the people, it’s a government that makes promises and fulfils the promises made”.

The Minister expressed optimism that the road will be completed and commissioned in June 2026 during the third anniversary celebration of President Tinubu's administration.

He also used the opportunity to urge the communities to support the current AMAC Chairman, Christopher Maikalangu, who, he said, persistently championed their cause for the road project, encouraging them to “remember the man who remembered you during the rainy season”.

Wike is not worthing to be emulated behavior wise but he is a tireles worker. I love his industrious nature.

Do you realize that all the infrastructure projects without security amounts to absolutely nothing. If you build a fantastic mansion that has no security then you have wasted your funds

Elrufai never indulged in all these media fanfare and publicity for local government-tier projects. He simply got the job done. Yet, Abuja was safe, secure and clean during his watch. Wike should leave the spotlight and get to work.
