Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike disclosed this on Monday, May 20, after inspecting the project, added that 15 million dollars, translating to more than N10 billion was expended on the rehabilitation project.
He said: “Thank God Almighty that we are good to go. We are ready and you can see the facilities have been installed. We are happy; very happy, and we thank God the promise President Tinubu made has been kept.”
The minister said Tinubu had promised to deliver the metro line to Nigerians within one year in office, adding that as his foot soldier, he has no excuse but to ensure that the promise is kept.
He said the operationalization of the metro line was a testimony of the reality of Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope” agend
The minister said the project was delivered because of the overwhelming support of President Tinubu.
He said: “We are doing well because Mr. President has given us every necessary support. Assuming we are not getting the support from him, this would not have been a reality today”.
Wike however identified facilities that were omitted during the design of the project, particularly air conditioning in the passengers’ waiting room and elevator.
He said: “We are happy with the project. It is just that we identify one or two things that were omitted during the design.
