THE Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minster, Malam Muhammad Musa Bello, on Monday, flagged off the construction of the Apo-Wasa dual carriageways. The projects, which was expected to complete within a 12-month timespan, would cost the FCT administration about N8.62 billion. Speaking during the flagging off in Abuja, the minister said the road, which was part of the Outer Southern Expressway (Os3x), would pull up the Apo-Karshi road, currently under construction, to the heart of the city. “On full scope development, this segment of Os3x would run through Wasa District and Kuje town before ending up at Gwagwalada. It is hoped, that the road would open up this major part of the territory for economic activities and estate development.
