The Chairman of Federal Capital Territory Football Association, FCT F.A   Mohammed Mouktar Adam has commended the appointment of immediate past Governor of Rivers State  His Excellency  Nyesom Wike as new  boss of the territory. 


Mouktar while commending the appointment said the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made the right choice  by bringing Wike popularly known as Mr.  Project to oversee the affairs of the nation’s capital.

 “I have no doubt that Abuja will take a new look in terms of providing necessary sports facilities in the six area councils. I also believe  that with Mr.  Project, most lands map out for sports facilities in the city centre converted  into shopping malls will be recovered and put into use as designated in the Abuja master plan”. Said Mouktar.

 
 He also  emphasised the need for the new fct  minister to  start the process of completing mini stadia  initiated by the previous ministers in the local councils but left either  uncompleted  or abandoned. 

“I sincerely believe that the new Territory Boss can accomplish the completion of abandoned sports facilities within a short time knowing his experience and capacity in terms of  project  and even initiate building of  modern stadium in the territory that can host FIFA and other international competitions “.
