Speaking during the flag-off ceremony, the Minister said the provision of access roads would encourage the development of the real estate sector, enhance access to the markets for agricultural produce, and also decongest the Abuja city center.
Barr. Wike said, “What we are doing today is what the Renewed Hope Agenda is all about – giving hope back to our people. I’m sure the people of Kabusa and Takushara have lost hope that this road will ever be done. But to the glory of God and by the coming in of President Ahmed Bola Tinubu, it’s a different story”.
The Mandate Secretary of the FCT Agric and Rural Development Secretariat, Malam Lawan Geidam, disclosed this while briefing journalists shortly after the FCT Executive Committee Meeting held on Monday, November 25, 2024, which was chaired by the Minister, Barr. Ezenwo Nyesom Wike.

Speaking to journalists shortly after the inspection exercise, the Minister expressed satisfaction with the pace and quality of work on the road project and the contractor’s assurances that the road would be completed by December 2024
