Executive Secretary of the Federal Capital Development Authority, Engr. Shehu Hadi Ahmad, has been suspended indefinitely.
A statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media to the FCT Minister, Lere Olayinka, said Engr. Ahmad’s suspension was with immediate effect.
Though reasons for the suspension were not stated, the Executive Secretary has been directed to hand over to the Director of Engineering Services in the FCDA.
Recall that Ahmad had assumed duties as the 8th Executive Secretary of the FCDA in December 2021, with a promise to bring back the glory of the authority and chart a new course of action for it.
The Executive Secretary had at the time promised to bring to bear his experience in the public service in the running and management of the authority and assured the staff of a level-playing ground.
According to him, “I will use my experience drawn from the public service to have an interface with relevant stakeholders in the Abuja Project I will not allow victimization of anybody. I will try as such as possible to be fair and just in handling issues.”
