– Don’t Give Me Free Land…Deliver The Metro Line, Says Tinubu
President Bola Tinubu has called on the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, to accelerate the completion of the Abuja metro line, highlighting the significance of an efficient transportation network for the nation’s capital.
Speaking at a session of the Annual General Conference of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) held on Sunday in Abuja, Tinubu described Wike as the “landlord of Abuja” and urged him to ensure the swift completion of the metro line project.
Addressing the gathering, President Tinubu humorously stated, “I could see our chief host, the landlord of Abuja. Stick at it, I want to ride on your metro line,” adding “If I ask for free land, don’t give me, but deliver the metro line for the good and greatest number of Nigerians.”
