Background of the Study
Nyesom Wike, appointed as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in 2023, has emphasized public-private partnerships (PPPs) as a key strategy for driving development and improving infrastructure in the FCT. Public-private partnerships are crucial for developing infrastructure, providing essential services, and addressing funding gaps in urban planning and governance. In Wuse, one of the most populous and economically vibrant districts of the FCT, PPPs have the potential to enhance urban development, improve public service delivery, and promote economic growth.
Wike’s leadership has been marked by a focus on leveraging private sector expertise and resources to complement government efforts. This study will assess how Wike’s role in fostering PPPs has impacted the development of Wuse, focusing on the outcomes for infrastructure, housing, and urban services.
