The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has issued a warning against bureaucratic sabotage in the implementation of projects by officials of the Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA. He made it clear that he will not tolerate such acts.
Wike urged Directors within the FCTA to speed up the process of paying contractors involved in the various projects in order to prevent unnecessary delays in their execution.
These statements were made by Wike during the commencement of the construction of the Gaba-Tokula road, which spans 7.2 kilometers and is located in the Bwari Area Council of the Territory.
“This is not a period where you bring bureaucracy into what we are doing. They minute a file to you to pay contractors, the file will stay in your office for two weeks.
“Woe be unto you that will do anything that will not make this project to go on well because you will become enemy to the people.
“So, take it seriously so that when the file comes to you, do it immediately and see that the payment of contractors are being processed and paid to them because when you keep the file, you suffer the payment and who will suffer, the communities will suffer.
“I’m not going to tolerate that. Anybody who sabotages our efforts will also be sabotaged So have it at the back of your mind.”
