Bello, who noted that the enforcement commanders had the complete support of the FCT administration while discharging their responsibilities also reaffirmed that the FCTA will remain steadfast and resolute  in enforcing city laws and will resist any form of interference or pressure to bend the rules.

The minister who also reiterated that the FCT is a creation of law and the rule of law will apply in all circumstances, charged them to carry out their assignments diligently.

Also, the FCTA permanent secretary, Mr. Olusade Adesola, while thanking the FCT Minister for the support granted the enforcement teams said, “I saw the report of someone that sank a borehole on the walkway.
