The Association of EX-Local Government Chairmen of Nigeria (ASELGON), has urged residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to support the Minister of FCT,  Barr Nyesom Wike, in his effort to restore the lost glory of the territory.

The body in a statement signed by its National President, Hon. Albert Asipa, noted that the steps being taken by the Minister are genuine and on course to reposition the FCT in line with the dream of its founding fathers.

The Association cited the giant strides so far recorded in office by Woke within the space of two weeks.

It hinted that Wike raked in N1.9b as part of debt owned the FCTA, with deadlines set for completion of different landmark projects.

In the same vein, the Association has congratulated the Governor of Plateau State, Hon Caleb Mutfwang on his victory at the State Election Petition Tribunal. 

The Association said the judgement has not only proven that the Governor garnered overwhelming votes from the people of Plateau State during the March 2023 election, it also confirmed that the people freely elected Governor Mutfwang to lead the State to the next level of growth and development. 

While assuring that Governor Mutfwang would deliver on all his campaign promises based on his deep grassroot experience and creditable performance as an ex-local government chairman, as well as his broad experience as a seasoned administrator. “It is noteworthy to identify with the good people of Plateau State for having Hon Mutfwang as a Governor at this auspicious time”, ASELGON said in the statement. 

The umbrella body of the former local government chairmen across the 774 LGAs said it has put machinery in motion to liaise with her FCT Chapter on modalities to educate the residents on the activities of the minister.
