Abuja-based professionals has added voices for the call for the appointment of the Kano State governor of Kano and Senetor-elect, Kano central senatorial district, Engineer Musa Rabiu Kwankwaso as the next minister for the Federal Capital Territory.

According to the spokesperson for the group, Ben Agarry, they are eagerly desire a minister who will replicate what the former minister of the FCT, Mallam Nasir el Rufia did to sanitise the Federal Capital city when he was the minister. He said FCT would have long witness more development than it is, if had el-Rufia remained as the minister all these years.

He said since it is not possible to have el-Rufia reappointed as the FCT minister because of his election victory as Kaduna State governor-elect, the next person that can do as much as him is Kwakwanso. “We have seen what he did in Kano state. As far as we are concerned he is the best governor in the whole of the Northern region, and FCT deserve a person with such proven integrity and track record.

“I was amazed with the kind of structures I saw in Kano when I visited the last time. I mean tangible things you can point to as development. And you hardly see him go to the television to make noise as some other governor do,” he said.

Agarry maintained that they would not rest in the demand for his appointment when the president-elect, General Mohammedu Buhari forms his cabinet after he is sworn in as the president of Nigeria May 29th.

“We are very serious with our demand and we will not rest until we see it come to pass. We are tired of ministers who end up doing nothing all through their tenure. In fact there was one who only built bumps throughout the roads of Abuja. This is not what we want, we want meaningful development and that is what Kwankwaso will give to us,” he concluded.

Let him remain a Senator. The people who massively voted for him need him more that those living in Abuja.
