Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), says the FCT administration is creating a conducive environment for investors in the city.
Wike spoke on Wednesday when a delegation from the Sunrise Estate Developers, a subsidiary of Nadeem Group, paid him a visit in Abuja.
The visit was to officially invite the minister to the inauguration of Sunrise Water Park, located at R1, Sunrise Blvd, Kugbo in Abuja, billed to hold in March.
“Ours is to make sure that we create a conducive environment for investors to come in and invest. I am happy that the members of your team and your subsidiary companies have shown interest in areas like construction,” NAN quoted Wike as saying.
“Let me sincerely thank you for what you are doing in contributing to the development of the city. The park will create a lot of commercial and economic activities and, of course, generate employment opportunities for our youths.
“So, we commend you for believing in Abuja and we will make sure our relationship grows.”
The minister also commended the developers for investing in Abuja, adding that the Sunrise Water Park will serve its commercial and economic interest.
He expressed optimism that the park would also provide employment for teeming youths in the FCT.
Wike urged the group to be regular and timely in the payment of their taxes to the FCTA, noting that this would enable the administration to carry out developmental projects.
“You must make sure that you pay your taxes; it is important because without these taxes, we will not be able to construct roads and provide other public facilities,” he said.
“So, when I praise you for investing, I will also encourage you to pay your taxes promptly.”
