As part of its plans to ease traffic congestion in the FCT, the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, says the administration will construct the Gwagwa, Karimo and Dei-dei roads.
The pledge was made by Wike during the inauguration of the Saburi 1 and 2 access roads in Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) on Wednesday.
The decision to construct the road followed a request by the AMAC Chairman, Mr Christopher Maikalangu, for the minister to consider expanding the road to ease traffic congestion.
According to him, the road, once completed, will lead to enormous socioeconomic progress and other strides in the area.
When Wike asked the audience on the Gwagwa-Karimo-Deidei road if they agreed with Maikalangu, the residents replied in the affirmative.
The minister, thereafter, said, “consider it to be done.
According to him, effective governance entails responding to the people’s needs.
He called on the residents to pray for President Bola Tinubu’ for good health and God guidance to be able to keep his campaign promise of providing dividends of democracy to the people.
During the next three months, he said, additional roads would be constructed across the six area councils of the FCT.
He said that the commitment was part of efforts to keep people’s hope alive in line with the renewed hope agenda of President Tinubu.
The Chief of Jiwa, Alhaji Idris Musa, thanked Wike for constructing rural roads across the six area councils.
