All Tinubu projects in FCT will be completed before tenure expires – Wike

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said all projects initiated under President Bola Tinubu’s administration in Abuja will be completed before the expiration of the administration’s tenure.
Wike stated this during a media chat in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where he also claimed that no previous administration in the history of the FCT had achieved what the Tinubu administration has accomplished in Abuja.

“Before this tenure expires, every project started under Bola Tinubu would have been completed,” Wike said.

He challenged critics to compare the administration’s performance with previous governments in the FCT.

“In the history of the FCT, no government has done what we have done in Abuja. I challenge anyone to come out,” he said.

The minister also criticised the recently held Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) conference, describing it as a flop.

According to him, the NBA leadership focused more on politics than on issues affecting the legal profession.

“Instead of concentrating on issues affecting the NBA, they started playing politics,” Wike said.

He also questioned the legacy of the current NBA president, saying he had previously explained why he did not support her emergence.

Wike expressed concern over the decision to invite a former governor whom he accused of having “chained and locked up the court for almost two years” to an NBA event.

“I will tell the NBA president: what would you say will be your legacy? As the Minister of the FCT, what would I say I have done?” he said.

“I told the current NBA president why I did not support her. She went to invite a former governor of the state who chained and locked up the court for almost two years. When you see this kind of thing, you begin to wonder, what kind of NBA is this?”
