He further stated that the FCT Executive Committee approved the upgrade of streetlights along Nnamdi Azikiwe Expressway (Ring Road I) to modern standards.

Also, the acting executive secretary of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), Richard Dauda, explained that the project was part of seven memos approved by the committee.
He noted that the current lighting system, installed 15 years ago, is outdated and insufficient.

“If you pass there at night, you’ll see that most parts of the road are in darkness. The lights have become obsolete and no longer bright enough,” Dauda said.
He added that the upgrade will introduce hybrid street lighting technology, enhancing visibility, security, and nighttime accessibility on the 14-kilometer, 10-lane expressway from Maitama to Gudu.

The event is expected to highlight the administration’s strides in infrastructure development as it marks two years under President Tinubu’s leadership.
