Great intentions But talk is Cheap.
May God give him the enablement.
Please the H/M should remember the legendary Karshi – Area 1 Bye pass.
It will surely ease traffic in the Nya Nya Karu axis God Will HELP You 💪
That is the place to Start from in FCT.
He should pay more attention to the satellite towns, especially kubwa and Karu. The roads are terrible. Make this towns better and it will discongest the city. Wike approach is elitist.
This is my point exactly. You want to rehabilitate existing roads. Not a bad idea. Buy why not start with places that have never been tared. Most parts of kubwa and other satellite towns
