…decries rising cost of living

The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Council, has commended the Minister of the FCT, Barrister Nyesom Wike, for his visible efforts in improving infrastructural development within the FCT.

While commending the minister over his developmental strides, the union urged for more economic reforms for citizens in the FCT

This was made known in a communiqué released following the Council’s historic first Congress, held on Saturday at the Council’s Secretariat in Utako, Abuja.

The Congressmen used the occasion to discuss the state of the Union/ Nation and urged relevant government authorizes to improve on economic and social development of her citizens.

Other matters of urgent concerns include the rising cost of living, poor supply of power as well as insecurity in states across the federation.

The event, presided over by Comrade Grace Ike, Chairman of the NUJ FCT Council, was a significant milestone, bringing together over 400 members with former Chairmen of Council and NAWOJ past leaders in attendance.

In her opening address, Comrade Ike emphasized the commitment of the executive to the prosperity and unity of the Council. "It is a privilege to welcome you all to this momentous first Congress of the NUJ FCT Council under our leadership. Today represents more than a formal gathering; it is an opportunity to reaffirm our shared commitment to unity, progress, and the collective good of our profession," she stated.

During the Congress, members deliberated on several critical issues, highlighting the rising cost of living as a major challenge. The Council described the escalating cost of basic goods and services as a heavy burden on Nigerians and called for immediate measures by the Federal Government to alleviate these hardships.

The Congress also expressed concern over the erratic power supply within the Federal Capital Territory, noting its impact on businesses on the daily lives of residents.

“The frequent disruption in electricity and water supply are pushing operational costs higher and reducing profit margins for businesses, placing an additional strain on the average Nigerian," the communiqué stated.

It called on relevant agencies to prioritize the restoration of basic amenities to improve the quality of life in the region.

The NUJ FCT Council voiced its grave concern over rising insecurity, including disturbing reports of ritual killings and other heinous acts, linking these incidents to economic downturn. It emphasized the need for a collaborative effort to address economic and security challenges.

The Congress concluded pledging commitment to unity and advancement of the union for the betterment of her members.

Action Man Nyesom.

Everyone in FCT is just happy to have WIKE as FCT minister

Wailing go starts
All the way from onisha

Stop embarrassing yourself here.

Stop embarrassing yourself here.

Not for you
Just pass

Wike praise singers. Btw, what has he done to warrant all this praises apart from 2 and 3km roads. If they say otherwise he will bully them to the trenches. Everytime you hear someone praise wike itvis done out of fear and sometimes to avoid being bullied and insulted. Demolition of buildings, revocation of lands and building of 3km roads and bridges doesn't amount to development.
He did same in rivers but the moment he left office people came out to say the truth about his eye service and low quality projects. There's nothing like education, medical, workers welfare and conducive business environment in his dictionary. Bala Mohamed captured wike's personality aptly.

Accolades here and there for the star boy.
Wike has taken developments to places in FCT that no one heard of before now. Satellite towns of Abuja are experiencing real time development. He is talking, he is doing, he is completing and he is commissioning. What a genius !! I hope the president can give him the position of steel industry.

Hate him or like him. Wine is doing a great job as FCT minister

He doesn't drink wine, he drinks 40yrs ogogoro thats why he behaves like an agbero

Wike... Political structure in the guise of infrastructure... NUJ captured already... Judiciary captured.... Well done sir

Convert the infrastructure into food and stop decrying about rising cost of living.

Bro, Wike's performance in the less than 2 years has surpassed by far the achievement of all the past FCT Ministers in the past 18 years combined together. This is not a joke. Its only people that live in the FCT that will confirm to this and Abuja people I've noticed don't make noise. There is no place in Nigeria today that has better quality of roads than his roads. He is by far the best and what Nigeria needs. Projects like the second rainbow bridge that took Lagos state government over 17 years to build, he started and finished over 20 of such overpass in just 7 months, and he's still building so many more at unprecedented speed. He is the only politician alive today that I know if he's given the opportunity to rule Nigeria as a President, has what it takes to totally transform Nigeria in less than 2 years that you will never believe it is the same country you use to know that everybody is insulting.
