President Bola Tinubu has congratulated FCT Minister Nyesom Wike as he marks his 58th birthday on December 13.
In a statement issued on Saturday and signed by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Mr Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu praised the minister and former governor of Rivers State for a life distinguished by purpose, courage and dedicated public service.
The President described Wike as “an audacious top performer who defies obstacles and delivers results,” also noting his significant contributions to the ongoing transformation of the Federal Capital Territory through an aggressive infrastructure renewal agenda.
Tinubu specifically acknowledged the minister’s recent intervention that broke a 14-year logjam in the construction of the Apo–Karshi Road.
He commended Wike’s resilience, “can-do attitude and commitment to excellence in all assignments,” thanking him for his consistency in delivering impactful projects and reforms.
“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,” the President said.
“I commend him for being one of the champions of our Renewed Hope Agenda, even though he belongs to another party, and wish him continued strength and fulfilment as he marks another year in his life journey.”
President Tinubu wished the minister good health, renewed strength and greater accomplishments as he continues to serve the nation in his role as FCT Minister.
