The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Thursday said President Bola Tinubu’s ‘Renewed Hope Agenda’ is not just theory but practical.
After examining the current rural road improvements in Bwari and the Abuja Municipal area councils, Wike made his remarks.
He thanked Tinubu for giving him the chance to contribute to his administration’s efforts to restore Nigerians’ faith in themselves.
The minister also commended Tinubu for what he described as ‘tremendous support’ to the FCT Administration to provide critical infrastructure and quality services to residents of the capital territory.
Wike noted that Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda was not meant for only the people in the cities but was designed to also ensure that those in rural communities feel the impact of his administration.
“I am very glad to say that the renewed hope agenda is working, particularly as it concerns the area councils.
“The renewed hope Agenda is not only for the cities; it is also to make sure that those in the rural areas feel part of the administration.
“We have been to Bwari and we attest to the fact that is a very difficult terrain. No wonder people talk of insecurity.
“But with the construction of that road, you can say that there is hope. I feel so happy that I am part of this administration and that people can see changes.
“Again, we are here in Saburi, and you can see the work going on. When we came to inaugurate the road, you could see the enthusiasm among the people.
“We are happy that everything we have started will be completed soon.
“This attest to the fact that Tinubu’s Renewed Hope” agenda is not just in theory; it’s practical – ‘seeing is believing,” Wike said.
