President Bola Tinubu has inaugurated the Wuye flyover linking Wuse and Wuye Districts in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Speaking at the inauguration in Abuja on Thursday, May 30, 2024, Tinubu reassured Nigerians of his administration’s resolve to prioritise their welfare and make it the centrepiece of his national development agenda.
The president also reaffirmed his commitment to building a nation where no one is left behind, stressing that his administration views government as a continuum.
“The best way to achieve greatness is to look forward, aspire for great results, and not be hindered by obstacles. We must see opportunities in obstacles and seize them,” he stated.
Highlighting ongoing investments in essential services such as water supply, electricity, and road networks, President Tinubu said his administration has laid the groundwork for economic growth, social progress, and improved quality of life for Abuja residents.
Tinubu said the completion of the Wuye flyover would improve traffic flow within and around the district.

Tinubu, while commending FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and his team for completing a project that was initiated in 2009, expressed his willingness to make personal sacrifices for the welfare and prosperity of Nigerians.
“Your resilience, patience, and unwavering support have been instrumental in making this possible. Projects and results are not realized by chance. They come through thoughtful planning and execution. I am very proud of this achievement,” he added.
In his remarks, Wike said the residents of the FCT had lost hope in the completion of the interchange bridge but now have a reason to rejoice because of the support from Tinubu.
“The FCT is working due to the president’s significant support. This project, initially awarded in 2009 at a cost of N34 billion, was revised to N74 billion before this administration took office on May 29, 2023,” the minister said.
Highlighting the 15-year struggle to complete the bridge and the difficulties faced by people and businesses during this period, Wike said: “Thanks to the president’s determination, we have restored hope with this project’s completion.”
President Tinubu also inaugurated the Defence Intelligence Agency’s (DIA) new office complex in Abuja.
He was represented by Senate President Godswill Akpabio at the inauguration of the DIA complex.
