“Delivering projects for the people is not about titles but about building relationships that impact lives,” Wike said.

The minister announced additional reconstruction works from Customs Clinic Junction to CBN Quarters Junction, as well as upgrades on EFCC Road, NIA Quarters Road, Pasi Road, and Primus Hospital Road. He also confirmed that streetlights would be installed to improve safety.

Wike disclosed that the contractor has a 10-month timeline to complete the projects, which he believes will enhance business activity and boost the local economy.

He further urged residents to acknowledge the efforts of leaders like Maikalangu, who have been instrumental in pushing for development, when making decisions in future elections.
