He noted that the way people shared with one another during the fast showed that Abuja remains a centre of unity and harmony.
Wike also mentioned the upcoming political activities in the country. He promised that the FCT Administration would provide a safe and orderly environment for all political events.

He asked the public to keep praying for Tinubu and the success of the nation.
