ABUJA: Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday expressed confidence that the ruling All Progressives Congress APC would perform better in the territory in the 2027 elections, citing increased grassroots acceptance and visible enjoyment of government infrastructural projects across the territory.

Wike spoke after inspecting six projects being prepared for commissioning ahead of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second anniversary in office, saying residents were beginning to respond positively to what he described as visible governance — particularly the extension of infrastructure to satellite towns and rural communities that had long been left behind.

“What the people want is simple — they want to feel the impact of governance. It is not about magic. Nigerians are interested in good governance, infrastructure, electricity and improved living conditions,” he said.
