Light Up Abuja_8 Months Later_Did the Billion Naira Streetlight Project Deliver?

In October 2025, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike unveiled an 8 months initiative aimed at illuminating Abuja's expressways and major districts with solar-powered streetlights to improve security, boost economic activities, and enhance the city's appearance. Now that the project's timeline has elapsed, we visit Maitama, the Central Business District, Airport Road, and Gwagwalada to investigate: 🔹 Are the streetlights still functioning? 🔹 Has security improved in these areas? 🔹 Are businesses benefiting from better night time visibility? 🔹 Is there an effective maintenance system when faults occur? 🔹 Was the project worth the public investment? Through interviews with residents, traders, commuters, and business owners, we uncover the realities on the ground and examine whether "Light Up Abuja" is a lasting solution or just another government project that faded after launch. Watch, share your experience, and join the conversation. #LightUpAbuja #AbujaStreetlights #FCTProjects #NyesomWike #AbujaDevelopment #CitizenTV #FCTAdministration #InvestigativeJournalism #AbujaSecurity #NigeriaInfrastructure
