Federal Capital Territory FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, has warned contractors handling projects in the Capital Territory against abandoning sites midway, insisting that any company awarded contracts must remain on site until full completion.
Wike gave this instruction on Thursday at the flag-off of the construction of Arterial Road N20 (Solomon Lar Way) linking Obafemi Awolowo Way (N5) to the Airport Expressway (AEW).
The minister added that it would be an embarrassment for contractors to pull out after mobilization.
He said; “I don’t want a situation where you go to a site and then you pull out from the site. That will be very embarrassing. Now that you have moved to site, remain on the site until the job is completed.”
Assuring residents that Abuja’s development is on track with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Wike stressed that no sector will be left untouched.
He added that the ongoing transformation of the capital city will ensure Abuja competes with major world capitals before the end of Tinubu’s first term.
According to him “Under the Renewed Hope Agenda of Mr President, the narrative has changed. By the grace of God, before the end of his first tenure, Abuja will compete with most of the cities in the world.”
According to the minister, beyond roads and infrastructure, his administration has also expanded interventions into the health sector and satellite towns, promising balanced development across all sectors.
