BY WALE ODUNSI This is not the type of essay you have to read up until the middle or closing section before you get the point. It is straightforward. President Muhmmadu Buhari, Minister Muhammad Bello and the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) must know thaat the deplorable lighting in Abuja is part of the factors causing accidents and fueling insecurity. https://politicsnigeria.com/abujas-poor-lighting-what-buhari-bello-fcta-must-know-by-wale-odunsi/ 26 Likes

zanshi: More like FCT does not have enough money, and there is looting too. FCT used to raise money from parking meters to supplement its income some 8 years ago, until someone got a court order to stop it. Also, we don't pay something called a council tax. Many cities in the UK...residents pay something called a council tax which can be as high as 85,000 to 100000 naira. (I know, Nigeria cannot be compared to the UK eh, we are poor)...but that money goes into providing essential services such as street light, transport, etc. The oyel money that we all rely on is not enough for all of us. Which is why you that is shouting Hausas and Fulani...is your state capital well lit all over? The reason is simple...there isn't enough money to do the job.(apart from Lagos maybe, and even Lag is not well lit all over). Because your tax to gdp ratio is too low and because the oil price has not been high enough to sustain us for nearly 9 years, if not longer. States and the FCT need to be innovative in raising money not just for streetlights , but for public services, especially in the cities. And Nigerians too need to put pressure on their leaders to make sure the money is used well to ensure that their cities are run well.(The court case I referred to earlier may have stopped corruption in the parking meter system, but then it also threw out the baby with the bathwater) (This is not a supporting Buhari message...personally, I think the minister of FCT should be more of a professional than a polticial somebodi. APC continued with the same old same old.Ironically, the last really good FCT minister we had was El-Rufai.) 37 Likes 2 Shares |

Abuja Is A Shadow Of It's Self Since PDP Left Power, No significant development since APC took power, if you are in Abj in the past fifteen years or so you will understand what am insinuating... Most infrastructural developments in Abj today are from the former ruling party.. APC has no clue of what good governance is all about... not ready for it yet, no single overwhelming project from them, unstable folks, Gone are the days when one is proud of coming and living in Abj. A lots of government enforcement agencies everywhere making the lives of people miserable. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Poor lighting is one of the major causes of insecurity at night. If ur car break down at some locations, be rest assured,boys go visit u; as s matter of fact,they are around waiting and hoping that ur car develop the slightest problem. just pray the problem can be managed till u get to a safe location. Games village, Apo ,National stadium,The fly over at Federal housing junction are all dark spot. Airport road has good illumination BT poor maintenance ; dead bulbs are not replaced which makes those areas dark spot at Night. The drainages are poorly maintained too though I don't know if these fall under their jurisdiction. Most of the drain covers have been stolen and nothing has been done over the years to replace them and work on blocked drainage. Very soon, Abuja will be like Lagos. The dirtiest mega city on planet Earth. 2 Likes |

Abuja this days just dey tire person, aside from lighting, the black and white paintings of most of the roads are faded, the heaps of refuse dumps in the satellite towns now is crazy. These are things you do not see before. With FCT-IRS, FCT is generating enough money, so it is really surprising to see FCT in this state. |
