Nyesom Wike, FCT Minister on Tuesday warned Directors in the FCT Administration against unnecessary bureaucracy that may delay the delivery of road projects.
Wike gave the warning while inaugurating the construction of a five-kilometre road, connecting Naharati, River Ukya and Unguwan Hausawa communities in Abaji Area Council of FCT.
The former Rivers State governor, particularly warned the directors against sitting on files for weeks.
He said, “Once I grant approvals, the bureaucracy should be able to do its due diligence within seven days and ensure the release of funds.
“We had a meeting on Monday with the most senior directors and I was telling them that woe unto that director who will keep a file that I have approved for weeks,” he added.
“Woe unto you because you are a saboteur. Once I approve, do the needful. You can take a week to do due diligence. You don’t need to take 20 days.”
