The minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Malam Muhammad Musa Bello has said that by the time he leaves office after his service, Abuja will be better.
He acknowledged though that Abuja is a difficult city to develop because of so many contending interests and forces, but that such would not make him to loose focus.
The minister spoke on Thursday evening when he hosted the media team working in the FCT and media executives of various media organizations to the breaking of Ramadan fasting at his Life Camp residence, Abuja.
Muhammad Bello acknowledged the support which media men and women have given him in the efforts to develop Abuja to international standards, even as he appealed to them not to relent.
He particularly appreciated some media executives who have been there for him since 2006 when he started his public sector service, adding that whatever he becomes, he would not forget them.
The minister called on all the stakeholders to intensify effort together on the task of transforming the city.
Some of those who attended the breaking of Ramadan fast with the minister are the Deputy Editor in Chief of Daily Trust, Mahmud Jega; Chief Operating Officer of Peoples Daily, Ali M. Ali; Editor-In-Chief/CEO of the Greenbarge Reporters, Yusuf Ozi-Usman; executives of the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA), Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), Radio France (Hausa Service), Voice Of America (VOA), News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) among others.
