Renowned Nollywood actress and philanthropist, Ambassador King Tonto Dikeh, has commended Barrister Nyesom Wike for his remarkable achievements as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). In a heartfelt tribute published in Daily Trust, Dikeh praised Wike’s governance style, describing it as not just administrative but truly transformational.
According to her, Wike’s impact on Abuja is evident in the numerous projects executed within a short period, restoring the city’s glory and setting it on a path of sustainable growth.
“Under his stewardship, Abuja has not only regained its fading glory—it has ascended into a new era of purposeful beauty, structure, and growth. Abuja is rising. Not just in infrastructure, but in integrity. Not only in design, but in direction. And behind that rise stands a man whose work speaks louder than propaganda, whose legacy will outlive news cycles,” she wrote.
