Background of the Study
Since becoming the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in 2023, Nyesom Wike has been tasked with addressing the many infrastructural challenges facing Abuja and its satellite areas, including Gwagwalada, a rapidly growing district within the FCT. Gwagwalada faces significant transportation challenges, primarily due to traffic congestion, inadequate public transport systems, and poor road infrastructure. The area has witnessed rapid population growth, but its transport infrastructure has struggled to keep pace with this development, leading to longer commute times, poor connectivity, and limited transportation options for residents.
Under Wike’s leadership, the FCT administration has embarked on a series of projects aimed at improving transportation in the region. These include upgrading road networks, expanding bus systems, and promoting alternative forms of transport such as light rail. However, despite these efforts, there is still debate over the effectiveness of these interventions and whether they have adequately addressed the transportation issues in Gwagwalada.
This study aims to assess Nyesom Wike’s role in addressing the transportation challenges in Gwagwalada, FCT, by evaluating the impact of his policies and projects on transportation infrastructure, public transport systems, and overall mobility in the area.

Despite Nyesom Wike’s efforts to improve transportation in Gwagwalada, many residents continue to face significant challenges related to traffic congestion, limited public transportation options, and poor road conditions.

This study seeks to evaluate the success of Wike’s transportation reforms in Gwagwalada and identify any gaps in his approach to improving the transportation infrastructure in the region.
