Make Peace For FCT’s Development – Senior Lawyer To Wike, Kingibe (Text)

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mohammed Ndarani, has urged all stakeholders in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), both elected and appointed, to cooperate for the territory’s development.

Ndarani made the call on Sunday in Abuja while reacting to the rift between the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, and the Senator representing the FCT, Ireti Kingibe.

Recall that Wike and Kingibe have not had a cordial working relationship since they assumed office, with Kingibe repeatedly accusing Wike of sidelining her despite being the senator representing the FCT.

Ndarani said that if Wike and Kingibe worked together, they could bring positive change for the greater good of Nigeria.

“It is imperative for all stakeholders, both elected and appointed, to work together and abide by the guiding rules of their different offices to strengthen one another as one big family,” the senior lawyer said.

According to him, Nigeria cannot achieve greater success without support among its leaders, and he urged all ‘warring parties’ to let peace reign.

He noted that although the two leaders were not from the same political party, previous elective and appointed officers of the FCT from different parties had always found a way to work together.

Ndarani also pointed out that while Wike and Kingibe have different roles to play in their respective positions, all efforts ultimately aim to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people.

He called on them to drop their differences and concentrate on delivering the dividends of democracy to the people.
