Dunamis International Gospel Centre (DICG) has constructed a pedestrian bridge along the busy Airport road, Abuja.

Its General Overseer Dr Paul Enenche, said the decision to construct the pedestrian bridge was borne out of concern over the frequent fatal accidents recorded along the Airport Road axis.

Enenche explained that “the Church plans to add modern aesthetic coverings, security lighting and transparent side-panels to the structure to protect users from weather elements and boost compliance.”

He urged public-spirited individuals and leaders to live for societal impact and keep eternity in view, emphasising that resources must be deployed for the collective good of humanity.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, commended the church and Enenche at the commissioning of the bridge.

Wike , during the inauguration of the pedestrian bridge at the Church headquarters, the 100,000-capacity Glory Dome, Abuja, described the project as an exemplary model of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

 

The Minister revealed that while the church applied for approval to construct the facility in 2018, the application was brought to his attention only in February 2026, leading to swift approval within one month.

He said: “Government cannot do everything alone; there is nowhere in the world where government carries every burden. That is why we emphasise comprehensive social responsibility.”

 

To further encourage community-driven infrastructure, Wike announced that the FCT Administration (FCTA) would defray 50 per cent of the total cost the church incurred in constructing the bridge.
