President Bola Tinubu has praised the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, as a shining star in his cabinet, marking the ex-Rivers State Governor’s 58th birthday with high applause.
The President, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, thanked God for enriching Minister Wike with a life defined by purpose, service, and courage.
President Tinubu also described Wike as an audacious top performer who defies obstacles and delivers results.
“President Tinubu acknowledges the ongoing transformation of the Federal Capital Territory through infrastructure expansion, highlighting the Minister’s recent intervention that broke the 14-year logjam in the construction of the Apo-Karshi road,” the statement said.
According to Onanuga, the President commended Minister Wike for his resilience, can-do attitude, and commitment to excellence in all assignments.
The President also thanked the Minister for his consistent efforts in delivering results and wished him a happy birthday and strength to further his good work in the FCT.
“Nyesom Wike has been one of the shining stars in the cabinet, an exceptional performer, developing infrastructure in the Federal capital as never seen before, and proving that his moniker as ‘Mr Project’ is not limited to his home state of Rivers.
“I commend him for being one of the champions of our Renewed Hope Agenda, even though he belongs to another party, and wish him well as he marks another year in his life journey, President Tinubu added.
NewsQuest reports that Minister Wike has been variously commended for his infrastructure developments in Abuja.
