Tinubu, Wike commended for appointing native as FCT Head of Service

Indigenes of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), under the auspices of FCT Indigenes Retired Senior Paramilitary Union, have expressed gratitude to President Bola Tinubu and the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, for appointing a native, Mrs. Grace Adailo, as the FCT Head of Civil Service.

One of the leaders of the union, Elder Danjuma Tanko Dara, at a press briefing,

praised Tinubu and Wike for heeding their calls by appointing locals to key positions within the FCT Administration.

The group also recognised Senator Ireti Kingibe and House of Representatives member, Obika Chinedu, for their commitment to ensuring fairness and responsiveness to the needs of the FCT residents, a stark contrast to previous administrations that often-overlooked public concerns.

Dara expressed satisfaction that the current administration was prioritizing the interests of natives in political appointments.

“We commend the efforts of the FCT Minister of State, Maryam Mahmoud, the cabinet members of the Tinubu/Shettima government, and the chairpersons of the six area councils for their substantial contributions to advancing progress and development in the FCT,” he stated.

The natives also lauded the establishment of the FCT Civil Service Commission, the Women Affairs Secretariat, and the FCT Youth Development Secretariat, citing these initiatives as a boost to public confidence in the government.

Dara called for community support for the newly appointed FCT Head of Civil Service, Mrs. Grace Adailo, urging her to apply her expertise and experience to meet the expectations of the FCT residents.
