Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Barr. Nyesom Wike, has disclosed that about 70 per cent of the projects completed by the FCT Administration under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu were abandoned contracts originally awarded 15 to 16 years ago.
According to Wike, these projects were revived and completed in line with President Tinubu's directive that no viable government project should be left abandoned.
Speaking during his monthly media chat on Thursday in Abuja, the minister explained that the administration deliberately prioritised inherited projects before embarking on new ones, noting that allowing them to remain abandoned would have deprived residents of critical infrastructure and led to a waste of public resources.
"The President said we can't abandon old projects. While we cannot abandon old projects, we must also carry out new ones.
I can tell you that about 60 per cent of the projects we have executed in the last three years were projects awarded 15 to 16 years ago but abandoned.
If we had allowed that, people would still be asking questions about those abandoned projects.
So, we first made sure they were completed, and we have achieved that with not less than 70 per cent of them," Wike said.
The minister stressed that while inherited projects were being completed, the FCT Administration had also initiated new road and infrastructure projects across Abuja and the surrounding satellite towns.
He attributed the pace of development in the nation's capital to President Tinubu's support, particularly the decision to remove the FCT Administration from the Treasury Single Account (TSA), which he said made funds more readily available for infrastructure development.
Wike maintained that the administration would continue executing projects aimed at improving transportation, opening up new districts and enhancing the quality of life for residents of the Federal Capital Territory.
