History is a thread which stretches from the past into the dim horizons of the future. Today, Abuja stands on the threshold,
in terms of improved infrastructure delivered by the Federal Capital Territory Administration to fulfill the dreams of the founding fathers of the city.
The phase one development has been almost completed and includes the Central Business District , Maitama, Wuse, Garki and Asokoro residential and business districts. Reliably, it was gathered that many plot owners keep their properties as a second home, visiting them only a few times in a year waiting for road networks. In March, the authorities had to warn owners of undeveloped landed properties to build or consider their allocation revoked.
To make a meaningful impact, the minister argued that there are several projects like the Southern Parkway from the National Christian Centre to Ring Road 1, the development of the Outer Southern Expressway from Villa Roundabout to Ring Road 1, and the Vice President’s official residence, that will take huge amount of money to complete.
On his part, the Federal Capital Development Authority Executive Secretary, Shehu H. Ahmad, echoed the minister’s statements during the tour, emphasising the expected benefits in reducing traffic congestion and improving transportation efficiency in Abuja. One of them, Yahaya Diri, an indigene of Abuja, explained that delivering significant projects such as roads, which residents had given up hope on, was part of President Bola Tinubu’s vision to restore the long hope of the people.
