Wike Plans Visit to Dunamis Church, Says He Will Highlight Tinubu Government’s Achievements
FCT Minister says he will attend project commissioning after Pastor Enenche’s invitation
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has announced plans to visit Dunamis International Gospel Centre in Abuja to participate in the commissioning of a project approved by the FCT authorities.
Wike disclosed this on Thursday during his induction into the Idoma Hall of Fame, where the church’s Senior Pastor, Dr Paul Enenche, and other dignitaries were present.
According to the minister, Pastor Enenche invited him to attend the commissioning, which is reportedly connected to a pedestrian bridge project near the church.

Wike also indicated that he intended to use the visit to explain the benefits of President Bola Tinubu’s administration to worshippers.
“I will go to our father in the Lord’s church. He invited me for the commissioning of a project; I will go there,” the minister said.
He added that he would highlight the government’s role in approving the project, arguing that the request had not received approval before the current administration intervened.

Wike’s Planned Church Visit Sparks Political Reactions
News of the planned visit has generated reactions on social media, with political supporters debating whether the minister’s appearance at the church could become an opportunity to promote the Tinubu administration.
Some commentators questioned the wisdom of taking political messages into a church environment, while others defended Wike, arguing that the minister was responding to an invitation to commission a public infrastructure project.
The debate has also drawn comparisons with the political relationship between Pastor Enenche and Peter Obi, whose supporters point to the pastor’s previous public interactions with the former Labour Party presidential candidate.
However, claims about how the congregation will receive Wike remain speculative.
There is no verified evidence in the supplied report that the minister has already visited the church or that worshippers have organised any protest against his planned appearance.
What Is Known About the Project?
The immediate reason given for Wike’s proposed visit is the commissioning of a pedestrian bridge project reportedly approved by the FCT authorities.
The minister’s remarks suggest that he intends to explain the government’s involvement in securing approval for the project.
The date of the proposed commissioning, however, was not established in the report.
It also remains unclear whether Wike’s planned address will include a formal political presentation or remarks limited to the project’s approval and the administration’s development agenda.
Headlineswave.ng will continue to monitor developments surrounding the proposed visit and report any confirmed updates.
