Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Wednesday, declared that working with him is very difficult.
Wike explained that contractors and those working with him
must show that they have the capacity.
He spoke during the inauguration of the Federal High Court
Judges' Quarters in Katampe area of Abuja to mark President Bola Tinubu’s third
year in office.
Tinubu was represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima at
the event.
Wike said: “Anything that is good is good, nobody that will
come here, no matter how wicked or appreciate that you are, will say Mr
President thank you for doing this. We all understand how Mr President feels
about the judiciary.”
Wike also noted that the judiciary needs a conducive
environment to work, adding that the welfare of judicial officers would ensure
the sector’s independence and rule of law.
He added: “The judiciary can’t be independent without giving
them a befitting environment to work, improving their welfare and these are the
things that would make the independence of the judiciary and uphold the rule of
law.”
The minister noted that glassiness that Tinubu’s
administration is changing the narrative.
“I pity the Executive Secretary of the FCDA, you know
working with me is very difficult because you really have to show that you have
the capacity to deliver.
“The contractors have said so and I think I have been here
more than 20 times supervising this project and letting him know that if you
collect our money during the rainy season, you must also work during the rainy
season, no excuses.
“You can also empower those who said that they are rain
doctors, go and bring them so that there be no rain. I’m happy this project is
completed within the time scheduled.”
He further urged the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court
to ensure proper use of the facility.
“But I will appeal to the Chief Judge of the Federal High
Court, this the Federal government has provided and I believe that when we come
back here in the next one year it will still look like this.
“We have the problem of maintenance culture, most people say
it’s lacking in us but I don’t want to believe so; I believe that if you have
your own private house, the way you will keep it is the same way you will keep
wherever you are staying.
“It’s very important that we keep the standard the way it is
and ensure that we will be happy when we come back in the next one year,” he
added.
