President Bola Tinubu on Thursday declared that his administration inherits problems and challenges to solve them and not to abandon them.
Tinubu disclosed this during the commissioning of the newly constructed Airport Expressway to Kuje road to mark his third year anniversary.
Represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, Tinubu said the road commissioning was a fulfilment of his promise.
He said: “Today we are not just commissioning a road but we are keeping a promise. Three years ago we took an oath to serve you, we pledged to end the era of abandoned projects and Today FCT Highway 105 has stand as proof that we keep our words.
“Let me be very clear that the present administration does not inherit problems to abandon them. We inherit challenges to solve them.
“To appreciate the significance of this moment we must recall why we started. This road was awarded in 2022 and little progress was made.
“It became a symbol of frustration as gridlock for businesses, dust in the dry seasons, and muds in the rains.”
Tinubu also disclosed that he appointed Nyesom Wike as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, to deliver projects.
“Therefore, when I appointed Wike as the FCT Minister, I did so because he delivers and while there were delays he brought political will, while there were obstructions we paid compensations, we respected the law and valued progress,” he added.
