”I commend him for being one of the champions of our Renewed Hope Agenda even though he belongs to another party” – Tinubu celebrates Wike on his Birthday
President Bola Tinubu congratulated the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on his birthday, December 13, praising his leadership and performance in office.
In a goodwill message, the President thanked God for Wike’s life, describing it as one marked by purpose, courage, and public service. He hailed the former Rivers State governor as an audacious and results-driven leader who consistently overcomes obstacles.
Tinubu specifically highlighted the ongoing transformation of the FCT under Wike’s leadership, citing the recent breakthrough in the long-stalled Apo–Karshi road project, which had been delayed for 14 years.
The President commended Wike’s resilience, can-do spirit, and commitment to excellence, thanking him for his continued dedication to delivering tangible results. He wished the minister a happy birthday and renewed strength to sustain his 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”.
