Wike Names Galadima SSA on Development Control, Planning

 

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has appointed a seasoned town planner, Mukhtar Usman Galadima, as Senior Special Assistant on Development Control and Planning.

A statement issued by the Minister’s Special Adviser on Media, Lere Olayinka, noted that Galadima brings over three decades of professional experience to the new role, having served in key capacities within the FCTA’s Department of Development Control under the Abuja Metropolitan Management Council, as well as the Satellite Towns Development Agency.

Galadima, who rose to become Director of the Department of Development Control in 2016, retired from the civil service last month.

He was also part of several ministerial committees, including the Abuja Masterplan Restoration Task Team and the panels on the Review of Revoked Titles and Change of Land Use.

According to the statement, the appointment takes immediate effect.
