‘He Will Deliver’—Arewa Youth Hails Tinubu For Appointing Wike’s Ally, Obuah To Head AMMC

A Northern group, the Arewa Youth Assembly has cast a vote of confidence on the newly appointed Coordinator of Abuja Metropolitan Management Council, Chief Felix Obuah, who is a staunch ally of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

On March 12, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu appointed Obuah to the council, an appointment that would trigger excitement. The office has been vacant for some time, which led the president to fill the existing vacancy in the agency of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA).

The Nigerian governmentt hopes to transform its capital city into a tourist destination, boost economic activities in the city and earn revenue.

At the heart of the ambition is Wike who is expected to replicate his achievements as a former governor of Rivers State.

With the appointment of Obuah, the Speaker of Arewa Youth Assembly, Mohammed Salihu Danlami, said the appointment would help the FCT Minister achieve the target set for him.

Danlami in a response sent to THE WHISTLER argued that Obuah’s appointment was long overdue as his “Wealth of experience lying untapped.”

The group commended the Tinubu administration for considering Chief Felix worthy to be onboard his team.

“We are confident based on his antecedents that he will deliver beyond expectations and will work tirelessly, always putting the masses ahead,” the Speaker said.

Chief Felix is a former Chairman of the PDP in Rivers State and Chairman of Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni LGA.

The Group added, “Nigerians expect nothing short of excellence. Hence, we call on him to bring on board his vast experience and river of knowledge immediately after he resumes office.

“While we congratulate Abuja residents for having the people’s servant as the Coordinator, Abuja Metropolitan Management Council, we pray to God almighty to guide, protect and endow him with the strength and wisdom to discharge his duties accordingly.”
