Wuye-Dakibiu Bridge: A Call for Collective Action

 

The story of the Wuye-Dakibiu link bridge is one of resilience and, unfortunately, repeated frustration. Originally built by the very residents who depend on it, this crucial artery connecting communities has sadly succumbed to disrepair, leaving residents in limbo.

While the recent initiative by a developer to spearhead repairs and garner some community contributions is commendable, it's a mere bandage on a gaping wound. This bridge, a vital link for countless residents, necessitates a more comprehensive and sustainable solution.

Therefore, we must raise our voices and call upon the Minister for the FCT to take immediate and decisive action. Here's why:

• The bridge is more than just a structure; it's a lifeline. It connects residents to essential services, workplaces, and educational institutions. Its continued disrepair significantly impacts their daily lives and livelihoods.
• The burden of responsibility shouldn't solely fall on residents and developers. This bridge serves a larger purpose within the broader infrastructure network, and its repair necessitates the active involvement of the authorities responsible for its upkeep and maintenance.
• Investing in the bridge demonstrates a commitment to the well-being of the community. By prioritizing its repair, the Minister can send a powerful message that the needs of Wuye residents are recognized and valued.

We urge the Minister for the FCT to:

• Allocate the necessary resources for a complete and long-lasting repair of the Wuye-Dakibiu bridge.
• Work collaboratively with the community and developers to ensure a transparent and efficient repair process.
• Develop a long-term maintenance plan to prevent future neglect and ensure the bridge serves the community for generations to come.

The Wuye-Dakibiu bridge is more than just concrete and steel; it represents the spirit and resilience of the community. Let us not allow this essential link to crumble further. Together, through collective action and the support of the Minister for the FCT, we can rebuild this bridge and bridge the gap between frustration and progress.

Special Message from the Wuye Divisional Police Officer

Dear Wuye Residents,

As we know the EMBER months are here and the year is fast drawing to an end, we observe that crime seems to be on the rise when criminals may want to reap where they did not sow. This calls for enhanced security measures to be emplaced by all and sundry at their respective offices and residential areas. 

Taking advantage of the architecture of Wuye district, the commissioner of police FCT Sunday Babaji has increased the number of vehicles stationed at the flashpoints around the stadium and games village axis with a view to preventing any form of crime and criminality this season as well as enhanced patrol by WUYE Division.  

These proactive measures would better be appreciated by the residents by offering relevant information that will also assist the police authorities in crime-fighting. Together we can create a conducive security atmosphere throughout this season.  

We must always ensure our surroundings are properly lit up at night. Ensure Lock up of our premises at nighttime or whenever we are not at home.  Double-check the Security of our respective homes as well as identify and promptly report any suspicious movement around your neighborhood.

Best Wishes, 

Mr. Harison Oruruo.

DPO Wuye.
