Nigeria’s minister faces backlash for building luxury judge housing while Abuja’s poor lack clean water and basic services.
Nigerian human rights groups and activists have criticized Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike for prioritizing luxury housing for judges over addressing basic needs in underserved Abuja communities, where residents lack clean water, schools, and healthcare.
Critics, including Omoyele Sowore and Deji Adeyanju, argue the focus on judicial perks undermines public trust in the judiciary and suggests political influence.
Despite a promised water project with China, improvements remain unconfirmed.
Wike has not responded publicly, though he maintains the court complex and 40 judge duplexes will be completed by May 2026.
