Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike, has said some FCT residents if they have seen a Minister face to face before, saying this administration is for the People.
He also warned the staff of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), particularly the Coordinator of Satellite Towns Development Department and the Director of Engineering Services, as well as the contractor handling projects in the Gwagwalada Area Council, against contract variation.
The minister issued the warning during the flag-off of the rehabilitation of the Aguma Palace-Radio Nigeria-New Market Road in the Gwagwalada area council of the nation’s capital, Abuja.
Governor Fubara holds the Rivers State Day of Thanksgiving, Praise and Worship, held at the Main Bowl of Alfred Diette-Spiff Civic Centre along Moscow Road in Port Harcourt Old Township.
The session was a gathering of thousands of enthusiastic residents and indigenes in Rivers State, including reputable worship leaders, clergies and gospel singers, who joined in the commemoration service to thank God over the botched attempt to abruptly end the administration of Governor Fubara on 30th October, 2023 by undemocratic elements and haters of the State.
He expressed gratitude to God for His divine rescue by frustrating the schemes of detractors, acknowledging that without the overwhelming but organic support of Rivers people, his winning over his transducers would not have been entirely as sweet as it is now.
The Court of Appeal in Abuja has ruled to stop the Central Bank of Nigeria from Releasing Rivers State Monthly Allocation from Federation Account due to dispute on presentation of state budget.

blackboy: Nothing will happen. Na you install am governor? Just wanting free money. Fabura can take care of himself and the ppl of Rivers know what to do
Recall that Wike and Fubara have been at loggerheads since the latter assumed office as governor in 2023, just as Fubara had said that his rift with Wike is tied to a tussle over power and control in Rivers State.
"I feel totally disappointed for the president to allow his minister serving under him to run amok and porcure judgement and all sort, threatening the people of Rivers State.
“What they are trying to do is that we’re going to remove Fubara, and nothing will happen. What I’m saying is that if you try to remove Fubara, something will happen. That is what I’m talking about. I’m not talking of any personal benefit; I can’t be appointed minister or to any board; I didn’t lobby for anything.”
The Minister of Works, David Umahi, has responded to the comments made by the Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Federal Roads Maintenance Agency, Remi Oseni, who claimed that the minister had misplaced his priorities over the state of roads across the country.
The committee chairman had accused the minister of neglecting his duty and priorities at an oversight meeting. Oseni emphasised that Umahi had “no plan for the nation.”

chrisxxx: A senator says what has been agreed in his constituency. If he says you are mad that has been debated and agreed your constituency and it is not a subject of argument.
Kobojunkie: If he really did utter those words, then clearly this man is nothing short of a disease that needs to be removed completely and immediately.
He said, “I understand that someone went on television quoting what you said on the Senate floor.
“Nigerians seem unaware that whatever is said here is privileged, covered by immunity, and not subject to debate on television or radio.
“You have never been invited or charged by the NDLEA, and as far as we know in the Senate, you are a gentleman who doesn’t even take alcohol. This is a serious issue, and we must call the NDLEA to order.”
