NGO lauds Wike’s leadership, security initiatives in FCT

The Dr. Yusuf John-Suberu Foundation has commended the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, for his transformative initiatives that have significantly improved the security, infrastructure and overall quality of life in Abuja.

The Executive Director of the Foundation, Dr Yusuf Suberu, gave the commendation while hosting newsmen at a dinner on Wednesday in Abuja.

Suberu described Wike as a key strength and a significant contributor to the success of President Bola Tinubu’s government.

He said that Wike had received nationwide acclaim from Nigerians for his diligence and commitment to duty.

This, he said, led to the successful completion of multiple road projects in the FCT, among other achievements, within his first year as Minister.

According to Suberu, Wike has engineered a transformative turnaround in the FCT’s infrastructure, with widespread road construction and rehabilitation projects underway in virtually every district.

“The massive infrastructural development in the FCT includes several key projects, such as the construction of new parks, relocation of business premises to more suitable areas.

“Another one is the highly anticipated launch of the Abuja light train services, which is expected to revolutionise transportation in the city.

“Thanks to the unwavering determination of the Wike, the former Rivers governor and current FCT Minister, Abuja is transforming from a hotspot for criminal activities into a secure and safe haven.

“Wike’s leadership has been instrumental in driving this positive change, making the nation’s capital a safer place for residents and visitors alike, “he maintained.

He praised President Tinubu for putting competence above politics when he appointed Wike to lead the FCT ministry, recognising Wike’s ability to drive meaningful change.

“The decision has proven to be beneficial for Nigeria, and we are delighted with the outcome.

“Wike has successfully restored our confidence in the nation’s capital, and his outstanding efforts are truly praiseworthy.

“We take immense pride in Wike’s achievements and extend our heartfelt appreciation to the President for having faith in him and entrusting him with the Ministerial position,” he said.

Suberu pledged to align his organisation’s goals with President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda, aiming to drive Nigeria transformation forward.

“We stand firmly behind President Tinubu’s administration and his commitment to addressing Nigeria’s longstanding challenges, many of which have been carried over from previous governments.
