President Bola Tinubu publicly praises Nyesom Wike, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, for his work on Abuja’s development. According to multiple Nigerian outlets, Tinubu’s comments come during official engagements in the capital and represent his strongest public endorsement of Wike so far.

The reports say Tinubu commends Wike for delivering on infrastructure projects and for using his position to drive Abuja’s transformation toward a modern capital city. While Tinubu is the one making the remarks, he is reported to be represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima at the relevant commissioning or event.

Across the sources, the message is consistent: Tinubu tells Wike he has not disappointed him and that Wike has justified the confidence placed in him to carry out reforms and development efforts in the FCT. The articles frame Wike’s performance in terms of tangible progress, particularly infrastructure development, as Abuja’s transformation gains momentum.
