Last week, the former Rivers State Governor declared that the FCT was not available for any protest, prompting strong reactions from youths who vowed to stage a rally at Eagle Square next month.

 

However, at a town hall meeting with youth stakeholders in the Bwari Area Council of the FCT on Monday, the minister urged them to voice their grievances and reconsider the planned protest. The meeting was attended by area council chairmen, traditional rulers, religious bodies, and representatives of women and youth groups.

 

In his welcome remarks, Wike expressed appreciation for those embracing dialogue and emphasized that President Bola Tinubu is working to advance the nation.

Regarding infrastructure development, Wike announced the President’s approval to create a youth secretariat within the FCT Administration (FCTA) and to establish police stations in each area council of the capital.

 

He called on youths across the area councils to abandon the protest and embrace dialogue, assuring them that improvements are forthcoming.
