The current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, Hon. Mohammad Musa Bello, may go down in history as one of the worst to ever occupy the position.
Aside from alleged skewed appointments that only favour Muslims and Northerners, to the extent that a lawyer, Barr Opara Maxwell Chibuike took the matter to court.
Hon. Bello has continued to flub from one inane policy direction to another.
How can one justify his latest directive that all Recreation Parks and Gardens in Abuja should close by 7pm?
As if that was not enough, I heard he further directed that no garden or park should sell alcohol henceforth.
He has vowed to commence enforcement of his draconian policy from today.
Does this man have advisers at all? What informed this misplaced priority? Are Abuja residents under curfew?
This kind of thing is unheard of, even in war thorn Ukraine!
Instead of this hide-and-seek, FCT Minister should be bold to declare Sharia in Abuja, at least, let’s know that it’s the only thing he would be remembered for.
I can bet you that out of every five Abuja residents you ask the name of FCT Minister, only one may get the answer correctly.
Living condition in FCT is worsening everyday, yet he does nothing or says anything! All he is concerned about is the operation of gardens and the sale of beer.
Somebody should please call Hon. Bello to order before it’s too late.
Nígeria is still a secular state!
