In a statement signed by the Special Assistant, Media to FCT Minister of State, Austine Elemue, the amount represented an increase of approximately 40 percent when compared to N3,938,092,102.92 shared in February, 2024.

According to the statement, the FCT Minister of State, Dr Mariya Mahmoud, who presided over the 188th Joint Account Allocation Committee (JAAC), expressed satisfaction over the increase.

Mahmoud, therefore, charged authorities in the six area councils to justify the monthly allocation by embarking on meaningful projects.

“The allocation to the area councils as its stands today goes beyond payment of staff salaries. It is, therefore, high time for the chairmen to embark on people-orientated projects to justify the resources that goes to the councils,” she said.
