The FCTA has said that the Permanent Secretary, Mr. Olusade Adesola is not the Acting FCT Minister as against speculations and misconceptions by some media outlets and the public .
A release by the Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Anthony Ogunleye issued today to clarify the mix up stated, “We hereby clarify that there is no provision either in the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or civil service rules for such a position, and therefore, the FCTA Permanent Secretary cannot be addressed as the Acting Minister of the FCT.”
” We understand that the recent political transition and absence of a Minister at present may have led to confusion regarding this matter. However, it is essential to rely on the established legal framework and adhere to the prescribed protocols.”
“The FCTA is committed to upholding the principles of transparency, accountability, and adherence to constitutional provisions.”
” The public and the media are enjoined to kindly take note and comply accordingly.”
