“With this development, FCT will have Permanent Secretaries and a Head of Service. Again the interest placed on the women, especially the approval of the creation of a secretariat for women just like the Ministry of Women Affairs in the states is renewing the hope of the natives and the FCT residents as well.
“I commend the President for the creation of the FCT Civil Service Commission to allow staff career progression and Treasury Single Account TSA, which will pave the way for the Minister to utilize the FCT Internally Generated Revenue IGR for the development of the nation’s capital which will be a huge milestone. I would like to state that Tinubu is a consummate democrat and the leader of progressives, I know he would not leave the FCT Natives behind.
“I also commend the Minister for tackling insecurity problems in the FCT. Recently, he directed the six area council chairmen to constitute surveillance teams in their respective domains. He said the surveillance team would help in checking activities of illegal mining in communities, which create avenues for insecurity. The Police and the Civil Defence Corps, are also working effectively in tackling insecurity in the FCT.”
Wike has promised that Abuja would be back to what it ought to be.
He talked about ensuring light in the streets of Abuja and good sanitation, prohibiting street trading like people selling corn that drop their waste indiscriminately which oftentimes attracts insecurity as criminals come to buy and use the opportunity to spy and give information to criminals.
