FCT Minister Nyesom Wike says ongoing infrastructure projects in Abuja are likely to improve the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC)’s performance in the 2027 elections in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). According to reports, Wike expresses confidence that the APC will do better in the territory, linking this expectation to increased grassroots acceptance and to people’s visible engagement with government projects.
The reports also state that Wike speaks after inspecting infrastructure works in the FCT. He is described as identifying multiple projects currently being carried out and preparing for official commissioning. One account says he has lined up 20 projects for commissioning, while another focuses on the general claim that the projects will influence how residents vote in 2027.
No outlet provides details on opposition responses or independent assessments of the projects’ impact. The coverage remains focused on Wike’s public position regarding the electoral value of the administration’s infrastructure programme in the FCT.
