President Bola Tinubu Tuesday reiterated that his administration is determined to replicate the infrastructural stride recorded in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in every part of the country.
Tinubu made the promise in Abuja while inaugurating the newly constructed Transitway N2, from Central Business District to Wuse District, with two bridges by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA).
The president, who was represented by the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, said the move would ensure that every part of the country is developed with roads, bridges, railways and more.
This, he said, will ensure that no region is left behind in the quest for a more developed and secured Nigeria.
Tinubu stated that the Transitway project symbolised progress and a reflection of his administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda, committed to building infrastructure that serves the people, unlocks economic potentials, and supports sustainable growth and development.
“This infrastructure is a very important piece of the FCT’s Master Plan, designed to ease traffic flow, enhance connectivity and improve urban mobility for millions of commuters, residents and businesses alike in the territory.
“For years, traveling between Wuse and the Central Area meant navigating bottlenecks, losing productive man-hours and enduring frustrating traffic gridlocks. Today, all that has changed.
“By cutting down travel times and bridging these two major districts, we are opening up new commercial corridors,” he said.
The president commended the FCT Minister, Mr Nyesom Wike, for the ongoing transformation of FCT in line with the Abuja Master Plan.
