NAN reports that the new chairmen and councillors of the six Area Council were elected on Feb. 12.
David described the the FCT minister as lover of peaceful coexistence of the Abuja people, adding that the minister had played a major role of a unifier, showing that the FCT natives had no other place to call their own than the FCT.
The youth leader said that the FCT minister stood firm to protect the mandate of the people against those that wanted to monopolise the area council for the selfish gains.
“At the end of the day, let us not forget that we have no other place than the FCT. This is our home and we have to love our territory, love our leaders, pray for our leaders to work hard to make FCT great.
“And the only way we can do this is through the collective work of us all, no matter how highly placed or lowly placed, once we have that love for FCT in our heart, the sky will not be our limit.”
David said that both the FCT minister and the Minister of State, Dr Ramatu Aliyu are outstanding and a fine example of the new crop of smart, intelligent and dedicated, justice proven administrators.
“He is a man that obeyed the rule of law, he obeyed the court judgment and the judgment that corrected the error on tenure elongation.
“People can not do without him and he can not do without the support of the people.We are solidly behind him as he continues to dole out meaningful support to the FCT Area Councils and communities.”
The youth leader also applauded the minister for ensuring effective city and urged the newly inaugurated to strictly work with the people and provide necessary infrastructures and empowerment to their communities.
“This is especially in the area of health, education, agriculture and security,” he said. (NAN)
