Wike assures FCT residents all Tinubu-era projects will finish by December 2026
Minister of FCT Nyesom Wike inspected two key Abuja highway projects on Thursday July 29 2026: the divided highway from Nile University to Ring Road III and Arterial Road N1 from Wuye District to Ring Road II. He declared a zero-tolerance policy for abandoned infrastructure under Tinubu's administration insisting most ongoing projects will be delivered to residents by end of December 2026. Wike stated the administration is bound by a strict promise to eliminate the culture of abandoned public works noting most projects awarded since 2010 are already completed with remaining ones in progress. He specifically assured completion of the N20 bridge over Shehu Musa Yar'Adua Expressway and commended contractors for quality delivery. The assurance addresses FCT residents' concerns about stalled infrastructure projects that have historically plagued Abuja's development affecting daily commutes and economic activity. With specific completion timelines and named projects residents can now track progress on these critical arterial roads and bridges expected to ease traffic congestion in key districts by year end. Will you monitor these specific highway projects for completion by December 2026 or consider alternative routes if delays occur?
