FCT projects: No preferential treatment for judiciary – Wike

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday dismissed claims of giving preferential treatment to the judiciary.

Wike insisted that his administration is providing support to all sectors in the capital city.

The minister spoke after inspecting projects being prepared for commissioning ahead of President Bola Tinubu’s third year anniversary celebration in Abuja.

“For the judiciary to be independent, you must provide the necessary infrastructure, welfare and working conditions.

“It is not only about the judiciary. We are also providing water, schools and other basic needs for Nigerians,” he said.

Wike maintained that ongoing projects across the FCT reflected an inclusive development agenda, particularly in rural and satellite communities, which he said were now benefiting from infrastructure for the first time in decades.
