“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has specifically tasked us with developing and nurturing the Arts and Culture and Tourism sectors in the FCT, and we are fully committed to fulfilling this mandate,” he said.

He also announced that in just a week or two, the FCT will host the 2024 edition of the National Festival of Arts and Culture (NAFEST), a significant event aimed at uniting stakeholders in the arts and culture sector to showcase their talents and celebrate Nigeria’s diverse heritage.

The FCTA is collaborating with the National Council of Arts and Culture (NCAC) to ensure a memorable festival.

An appeal was also made regarding the FCT Administration’s ongoing efforts to roll out programs that provide relief and inspiration to residents amidst the challenges posed by current economic policies.

In her address, Olubumi Olowookere, permanent secretary of the Social Development Secretariat, pointed out that the festival offers an opportunity for residents of the FCT to explore and appreciate diverse cultural expressions.

She emphasised that ASOFEST is not only a celebration of culture but also a platform for transmitting values and fostering understanding.

The annual ASOFEST festival is designed to showcase the rich cultural diversity of both indigenous and other ethnic groups in Abuja, reinforcing social cohesion and peaceful coexistence among all citizens.
