ASHENEWS reports that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike has threatened workers of the Territory that he would raised their blood pressure for them to work hard.
Wike, monitored by ASHENEWS on the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA) on Tuesday, also advised directors in the FCT Administration, and the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), to seek redeployment if they cannot perform in their various offices.
“You must be ready to work hard, I must make sure I give you BP, so you must work hard. You can’t be sleeping when the environment is dirty.
“We are here to deliver the short-term deliverables for people to see that Abuja is coming back to what it was supposed to be.
“People are complaining of street lights not working, I am complaining too. We must fix it within the shortest possible time,” Wike said.
He directed the director in charge of street lights to restore lights in the streets of Abuja.
Speaking sanitation, Wike the director to work hard.
“You can’t be a director for nothing, it’s an opportunity for us to tell Nigerians and Mr. President that we can’t disappoint. If you are in charge of sanitation, buy your drugs, carry them all the time because I will disturb you all the time to make sure Abuja is clean,” he said.
On transportation, the Minister said “Wahala don come” while lamenting on the indiscriminate and illegal bus stops all around Abuja.
“I have respect, small, for women, but this one I will not. If you don’t have the capacity, let’s replace you now. On this job, people will not like you, but in the end, if you do it well you will be appreciated. Things are tough, yes, but we cannot live in a lawless society because things are tough.”
