FCT University To Take Off Under Tinubu Administration – Wike

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said the FCT University of Science and Technology in Abaji will commence operations under the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Wike made the disclosure on Tuesday in Abaji during his
thank-you tour to the area council for supporting Tinubu’s candidates in the
February 21 FCT area council elections.

He said the FCT Administration is already developing the
necessary infrastructure and critical facilities required for the university’s
take-off.

Wike urged residents to remain patient, stressing that the
university would become a reality within Tinubu’s tenure.

“From our conversations, we see how important the university
is, not only to Abaji people but to all residents of the FCT. It will create
jobs and open the Abaji community to further development. I will be glad to be
the one to open the university for operations,” he said.

The minister said he visited Abaji to thank residents for
fulfilling their promise to support the President and emphasized the importance
of appreciating good deeds.

Describing politics as a game of give and take, Wike said
the era of empty promises was over.

“This time, leaders must show people they will deliver good
governance. You cannot promise everything during elections and disappear
afterwards without fulfilling those promises.

“We sat with you and asked that you support Tinubu,
beginning with the area council elections. The election was held on February 21
and you fulfilled that promise. You came out in large numbers and delivered 133
of the 135 polling units in the council for Tinubu.

“What else can we say but thank you? Now you have done your
part, we will do ours too. Abaji people have spoken and they have spoken very
well,” he said.

Wike described the outgoing Abaji Area Council Chairman,
Abubakar Abdullahi, as a humble leader.
