Hillary Michael · Abuja · Oct 30, 2026

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike has publicly commended Dunamis International Gospel Centre, led by Dr. Paul Enenche, for constructing a pedestrian bridge in Abuja.

In a move that has caught the attention of many residents and observers in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has extended rare and effusive praise to a religious institution for its contribution to public infrastructure.

During an official engagement, Wike spotlighted Dunamis International Gospel Centre for taking the initiative to construct a pedestrian bridge along the busy route near its headquarters.

The project, designed to curb pedestrian accidents and ease vehicular movement, has been widely welcomed by commuters who previously faced hazardous conditions crossing the busy highway.

Key highlights surrounding the commendation include:

Addressing Safety Concerns: The newly constructed bridge provides a secure alternative for thousands of worshippers, residents, and school children who navigate the busy thoroughfare daily.

Partnership for Development: Minister Wike emphasized that urban development should not be left entirely to the government, using the church's project as a shining example of corporate social responsibility and community partnership.

Public Reaction: While many citizens have lauded the church for addressing a critical infrastructural deficit, the development has also sparked widespread conversations online regarding public governance versus private community interventions in Nigeria.

As infrastructure projects continue to shape the political and social landscape of Abuja, Wike’s public endorsement underscores a growing push for private-public cooperation in tackling urban challenges.
