neighbourliness.
He emphasized that it is a time for sober reflection and
rededication to the virtues of love and harmony.
“I felicitate with Christians in the FCT as they celebrate
Christmas and urge them to see the period as one of sober reflection, ensuring
that they share good tidings and goodwill towards fellow residents in the
Territory, thereby creating the peace, harmony, and prosperity desirable in the
nation’s capital,” Wike said.

good people of the FCT for their cooperation and support for the Administration
all through the year 2025
“It is an indisputable fact that monumental developments
have taken place in the last 12 months in every sector. Schools have been
renovated, hospitals staffed and equipped, roads and bridges constructed in
every area council, the judiciary supported, and security enhanced. Indeed, it

cooperation,” he said.
