Barr. Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), is thrilled with the Airport–Kuje–Gwagwalada road’s rapid development and has said that the project will be ready for inauguration by June.
Wike described the route as a crucial piece of infrastructure that will revolutionize transportation in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and expressed his admiration for the amount of work completed thus far during his inspection of the enormous road project on Wednesday.
“I’m really amazed. During the visit, Wike mentioned, “You know, one road that is very important to us is the Airport to Kuje road.”
The Minister recalled his last trip to the Kuje–Gwagwalada axis, where he praised the contractors for their work and paused next to a mosque that was still under construction.
“God willing, we will have started this project by the first week of June or the end of June, as the contractors have stated. You don’t have to go through the airport if you’re traveling to or from Gwagwalada to town because of this crucial initiative. “We are extremely pleased with what we have observed,” he said.
It is anticipated that the new road will give drivers a significant alternate path, lowering travel times and the high traffic that frequently surrounds the airport area.
According to Wike’s progress report, the Airport–Kuje length is already more than 70% finished, and the Kuje–Gwagwalada part is around 65% finished.
“Well, if you take from Airport to Kuje, it is over 70%, and here (from Kuje to Gwagwalada), I can see it’s almost 65%, so I think they will meet up,” he asserted.
As part of Wike’s vigorous campaign to expand satellite villages and decongest the city center, the project is expected to have a significant positive impact on residents of Kuje, Gwagwalada, and the adjacent districts.
Now that June is approaching, everyone is waiting for the contractors to complete the revolutionary route that will put an end to many commuters’ nightmares with airport gridlock.
