Infrastructure and sanitation initiatives in Abuja’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have focused on easing traffic congestion and improving urban management. Recent efforts included the evacuation of large refuse heaps in Zuba to clear federal highways and the completion of a 15-kilometre road project in the Karu corridor, which has reportedly reduced travel times and improved drainage.

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has also conducted inspections of several ongoing construction projects to ensure alignment with the administration’s infrastructure agenda. Contractors have provided timelines for various works, including the High Court project, a bridge near Kubwa and Karaduwa, and the Nile University to Ring Road project, with completion targets ranging from late 2024 to early 2027.
