Wike inspected facilities and rode the train, making stops at the stadium, Idu, and airport stations along the route.
The Minister stated that the project is ready for commercial operation, highlighting that the President’s promise has been fulfilled.
According to the FCT Minister, “In a few days, the President will inaugurate the commercial operation of this Metro line.
“We are ready and you can see the facilities. The promise Mr. President made has been kept”.
He however stated that some of the facilities that were omitted during the design of the project, including escalators and elevators for the sick and elderly, as well as air-cooling systems, especially, in the waiting areas, would also be taken into consideration and corrected in due course, while assuring that the omission would not hinder operations.
