President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has granted his approval for the establishment of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Civil Service Commission, along with the appointment of the Head of Service and ten Permanent Secretaries, according to a statement released in Abuja on Tuesday by Anthony Ogunleye, the Director of Press in the Office of the FCT Minister.

The nod from Tinubu comes after FCT Minister Nyesom Wike sought approval for the nominees, aligning with Section 2 (2) (a & b) of the Federal Capital Territory Civil Service Commission (Establishment) Act, 2018. This section mandates the appointment of a Chairman and six other members representing each geo-political zone.

Ahmed Mohammed (North West), Chief Anthony Okeah (South-South), Mohammed Magaji Ibrahim (North East), Miskoom Alexander Naantuam (North Central), Hon. Jide Jimoh (South West), and Barr. Martin Azubike (South East).

To address staffing needs in key agencies of the FCT Administration, Abdulkadir Zulkarfi, Chief Felix Obuah, and Oladiran Olufemi Akindele were designated as Coordinators for the Satellite Towns Development Department, Abuja Metropolitan Management Council, and Abuja Infrastructure Investment Centre, respectively.

Atang Udo Samuel, the most senior Director in the FCT Civil Service, was appointed as the Head of the FCT Civil Service to enhance the administrative framework.

Furthermore, incumbent Directors of the FCT Civil Service were appointed as Permanent Secretaries based on their expertise and regional representation. Notable appointments include Dr Adams Baba Gana and Wanki Adamu Ibrahim (North East), Asmau Muhktar and Dogo Aliyu Wadata Bodinga (North West), Olusa Olusegun and Adetoyi Rabiu Kolawole (South West), Grace Adayilo and Olubunmi Olowookere (North Central), Ibe Prospect Chukwuemeka (South East), and Okonkwo Florence Nornubari (South-South).

Since assuming office, Wike has emphasized his commitment to upholding relevant laws, including disengaging the Administration from the Treasury Single Account (TSA).
