Speaking after inspecting the project, and the 11-kilometre (km) six lane dual carriage expressway linking Airport Expressway to Kuje, Wike added that the road from Kuje to Airport Expressway, when completed, would open the area for transformative economic growth and development.

The minister, who equally visited the vice-president’s residence being handled by Julius Berger, expressed optimism that the project would be completed in May, as the contractors were at the stage of electrical installations.

Wike reiterated that no ongoing project in the FCT would be abandoned, adding that the projects were considered as priority and have been included in the FCT’s 2024 statutory budget to ensure adequate funding.
