The Minister of the Nigerian Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Mr Nyesom Wike, has disclosed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda is entrenching good governance amongst the people. 

The Minister made this claim in Abuja on Tuesday, when he inspected the ongoing construction of the five-kilometre Saburi – Dei Dei road, awarded to Lubrik Construction Company in February this year.

Wike said that President Tinubu had promised to satisfy the needs of the people. He added that the promises were being fulfilled and the hope of Nigerians was being renewed.

He said, “Good governance is inclusive of the provision of basic infrastructure, being transparent and accountable, providing security and providing quality health and education to the people.

“All the things that we have been doing in FCT are part of good governance”, he added.

The minister expressed joy that the people were happy with what the Tinubu-led administration was doing in FCT to transform their lives.

He said that the people of Saburi and Dei Dei would be happier by the time the road project was completed in December.

We are happy that the people appreciate what we are doing. It is very important to us that the people are happy.”

The minister also disclosed that the procurement processes for the construction of the 17-kilometre Life Camp – Dei Dei road had reached 80 per cent.

He added that the FCT Administration was awaiting the certificate of no objection from the Bureau for Public Procurement.

If that happens, we will go to the Federal Executive Council for approval and continue from there,” he said.

On the clamp down on scavengers and beggars, Wike said that a combined security team was working day and night, arresting and prosecuting the scavengers arrested.

He said that the security operative had been clearing Abuja roads of the people who claim to be beggars but were not actually beggars.

The Minister added that “It is not easy, but we are going to achieve it,”.
