Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, declared on Friday that Abuja is 'shut' to opposition, asserting that President Bola Tinubu's infrastructure projects have silenced critics. Wike revealed that 317 km of roads had been awarded in FCT satellite towns, with 221 km completed, and issued a 48-hour challenge to opponents to dispute the figures, offering to resign if proven wrong. The remarks came during the commissioning of the Arab/Gbazango Road in Kubwa, concluding a 31-day project commissioning program.
