Arewa Youth Assembly has rallied behind the Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Barrister Nyesom Wike, urging him to stay undeterred by attempts to derail his efforts in restoring the original master plan of the FCT. The call, articulated in a statement signed by the Speaker of the Assembly, Mohammed Danlami, underscores the imperative of upholding the vision for Abuja’s development.<\/p>\n
The statement, emanating from Abuja and disseminated to the media, follows recent tumultuous events triggered by the demolition of structures in the Asokoro district of Abuja, a move sanctioned by the Minister. In clarifying the Minister’s intentions, the Speaker emphasized that Wike’s actions are not targeted at any specific individual or ethnic group, but rather aim at revitalizing Abuja’s master plan, a foundational blueprint for sustainable urban development.<\/p>\n
“Every step taken by the Minister since assuming office has been geared towards transforming Abuja into a safe, investment-friendly, and inclusive city for all Nigerians, irrespective of religious or ethnic affiliations,” remarked the Speaker. He decried the insidious efforts of detractors who, through unfounded allegations and ethnic rhetoric, seek to undermine the Minister’s progressive agenda.<\/p>\n
The Assembly condemned such divisive tactics, labeling them as calculated attempts to thwart the Minister’s monumental reforms and development projects. “Their desperate ploys to sow discord and hinder progress through ethnic manipulation are not only deplorable but also antithetical to the national interest,” the statement asserted.<\/p>\n
Asserting the resolve of the Arewa Youth Assembly, the statement cautioned against incendiary rhetoric and urged restraint in disseminating inflammatory messages that could incite violence and lawlessness. Emphasizing the importance of responsible discourse, the Assembly warned that individuals propagating divisive narratives risk facing legal consequences for their actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
