President Bola Tinubu has withdrawn the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) from the Treasury Single Account (TSA) to enable it utilise its Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) for project development.

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike disclosed this Friday at a press conference in Abuja.
He said the President approved the proposal after he (WIke) tabled it before before him.
The minister also revealed that President Tinubu had also approved the creation of the FCT Civil Service Commission and a FCT Women Affairs Secretariat to be headed by a Mandate Secretary.
Wike said the establishment of the FCT Service Commission will assuage the worries of FCT civil servants about career progression as no civil servant working for the FCTA could progress to become a Permanent Secretary.
