Sam Adah, Abuja
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has commissioned a newly constructed pedestrian bridge across the Lugbe section of the Airport Road, Abuja, built by Dunamis International Gospel Centre as part of its corporate social responsibility initiative.
The commissioning ceremony, held at the Glory Dome, headquarters of Dunamis International Gospel Centre along Airport Road, was attended by dignitaries and other prominent personalities.
Speaking at the event, Wike described the project as a welcome intervention by the church, noting that it would enhance pedestrian safety and reduce the risks faced by residents and other road users along the busy corridor.
He urged religious institutions and corporate organisations to complement government efforts through initiatives and projects that directly improve the lives of citizens.
The minister also commended the Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Dr Paul Enenche, and his wife, Dr Becky Enenche, for their commitment to public safety and community development.
In his remarks, Dr Enenche expressed appreciation to the Federal Government and the FCT Administration for granting approval for the construction of the bridge.
He said the facility would help safeguard lives, particularly given the heavy traffic along the route.
According to him, “the project demonstrates the church’s commitment to translating its teachings into practical actions that benefits the society.”
He stressed that people should be remembered for the problems they solve and the lives they improve.
The cleric also appealed to the FCT Administration to approve additional customisation and features for the bridge to enhance compliance, aesthetics and overall safety.
