President Bola Ahmed Tinubu says the last one year has been a challenging period for the country.
The President said he has been working, retooling and rejigging the financial system to bring prosperity and relief to Nigerians.
He made the remarks at the inauguration of projects engineered by Nyesom Wike, FCT Minister in Guzape District Lot II, in Abuja.
“Minister Nyesom Wike has provided exceptional leadership at a trying time for the country. It has been a very challenging time for us in the country. We are still retooling and rejigging our financial system to bring prosperity and relief to the people of this country,” he said.
“You have demonstrated the capacity to build a team, lead a team, and deliver on promises. I commend you.
The President who hinted that government will compensate those affected by the project, added that, “To all of you here, to the District Head of Guzape, and the representatives, litigation is not the answer. Compensation is the answer.
“Development that is focused on the people for economic prosperity and benefits is what we should pursue.”
The President also named two roads in the Guzape area of Abuja after Africa’s literary giant, Chinua Achebe, and JP Clark following the recommendation and appeal by the Federal Capital Territory, Minister Nyesom Wike.
