Tinubu’s scorecard so impressive, it would be difficult to unseat him – Wike
Nyesom Wike, minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), says it would be doubly difficult for opposition parties to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections.
Speaking on Tuesday after inspecting some projects within Abuja, Wike said Tinubu has an undeniable and rich report card of infrastructure development.
He added that the volume and pace of visible achievements on Tinubu’s watch would leave political detractors scrambling for talking points.
“You can see clearly that it will be difficult to unseat the president today because the report card is obvious in terms of what he has done,” Wike said.
“Like I told you, this is our campaign. People ask what we are going to campaign with, but we have so many visible achievements all around us.
“There is no way residents of Abuja will see the kind of infrastructure we have provided and say they are not happy with the achievements of Mr President. It is second to none.
“Within six to seven months, you can see what has been achieved. It is unimaginable and that is why we are very happy.”
He noted that the FCT administration is on track to inaugurate at least 10 high-impact projects before the general election.
Among the projects inspected by the minister is the Arterial Road S1 to connect Ring Road II to the FCT fire service station in the Kaura and Gaduwa district corridors, and the Innet Southern expressway from Area 1 roundabout to Games Village bridges; and southern parkway linking Oladipo Diya road.
