FCT minister Mahmoud urges unity, grassroots mobilisation

The Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Dr. Mariya Mahmoud, has urged members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to remain united and committed to the party’s growth, stating  the need for grassroots mobilisation and active youth and women participation in party affairs.

Speaking at a crucial stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja, Mahmoud lauded the tireless efforts of the party’s leadership at all levels, recognising their role in solidifying APC’s dominance as the ruling party.

She also commended the achievements of the party, particularly in the FCT, under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Acknowledging the challenges ahead, Mahmoud  said  unity remains APC’s greatest strength, urging party members to put aside personal interests and resolve internal disputes through dialogue and respect for party supremacy.

“In the FCT, our party has made remarkable strides in governance. We have witnessed notable achievements in infrastructure development, security, education, healthcare, and youth empowerment, among others.

“These achievements are a testament to the effectiveness of our party’s policies and the hard work of our elected representatives and area council chairmen,” she said.

Mahmoud also stated the importance of strengthening grassroots mobilization and encouraging more active participation of youth and women in party activities.
