The Concerned Northern Forum (CNF) has recognized Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, as the standout performer in President Bola Tinubu's cabinet.

As President Tinubu celebrates his first year in office, the CNF applauds his team for their dedication to the 'Renewed Hope Agenda.'

Muhammad Aminu, the national vice-chairman of the CNF, commended the ministers for their steadfast efforts during a press conference in Kaduna on Sunday, May 2, 2024.

He highlighted the significant strides made by President Tinubu's administration in its inaugural year, which have instilled a sense of optimism among Nigerians.

"After thorough evaluation, we've identified ministers who have exemplified excellence and served as commendable representatives of the Federal Executive Council," Aminu stated.

According to the CNF's assessment, Wike has made remarkable advancements in infrastructure and land management in the FCT since taking office.

Aminu also lauded David Umahi, the Minister of Works, for his contributions to national road development, including the Lagos to Calabar coastal highway and the Badagry to Sokoto highway.

Bunmi Ojo, the Minister of the Interior, was praised for implementing innovative technologies and cost-effective strategies to eliminate passport application backlogs, leading to a new era of immediate processing.

The CNF shone a spotlight on Shuaibu Audu, the Minister of Steel, describing him as a "focused youth" who has made significant progress in reviving the steel industry, including efforts to rejuvenate the dormant Ajaokuta steel complex.
