The Tinubu Media Volunteers (TMV) has described the provision of numerous infrastructural projects in the Federal Capital Territory as clear proof that President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda is working.
In a statement signed by its Chairman, Chukwudi Enekwechi, and Secretary, Segun Ogedengbe, TMV noted that the President’s decision to take the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) out of the bureaucracy of the Treasury Single Account (TSA) has proved to be a well-thought-out move.
The statement read in part, “We believe that the transformative projects have already raised Abuja to an international city, and this was made possible based on the determination of the President to ensure that adequate attention is paid to all sectors under his watch.
“We also acknowledge that the projects were being realised due to the decision of the federal government to remove FCT from the bureaucracy of the Treasury Single Account. Based on that visionary decision, Abuja has, within a period of two years, transformed into a fitting national capital, attracting visitors from across the globe.
“It is our conviction that since the creation of Abuja as Nigeria’s capital in 1991, this is the first time we are witnessing such massive developmental projects, that even the critics of the Tinubu administration admire and agree on the positive changes.
“Furthermore, with the construction of several dual carriageways and other roads in the hinterlands (six area councils) the Federal Capital Administration under the leadership of Minister Nyesom Wike has succeeded in opening access to the city, while the rural dwellers can now heave a sigh of relief as they are now in a position to transport their agricultural products to the city.
Similarly, the construction of several roads will reduce traffic gridlock in the city center as residents can operate seamlessly from the satellite towns without everyone heading to the city center daily.
Today, Nigeria’s capital is having a new look with landmark road projects, newly-constructed bus terminals, and the newly-renovated International Conference Center, now known as the Bola Tinubu International Conference Centre, among others.
“With these multi-billion naira projects dotting the landscape, there is no doubt that the Wike-led FCTA administration is bringing the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Tinubu into reality, and all Nigerians and foreigners alike are the beneficiaries.”
The group also urged the minister to extend what he is doing with infrastructure to other sectors in the FCT.
