The Federal Capital Territory Administration has announced another major shift in its leadership structure as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, removed the Acting Executive Chairman of the FCT Internal Revenue Service, Michael Ango, in what insiders describe as part of a broader restructuring agenda targeting revenue operations.
The minister’s directive was revealed by his media aide, Lere Olayinka, who confirmed that Ango’s removal takes immediate effect.
Moreover, a senior official within the agency has been instructed to temporarily assume control and ensure continuity of essential revenue duties while awaiting further decisions.
The announcement did not provide a reason for the sudden dismissal.
AFRIPOST reports that the removal is consistent with recent steps taken by the minister to reorganise strategic offices linked to financial operations and service delivery.
Furthermore, the latest action signals the administration’s determination to strengthen the capital’s revenue framework and eliminate inefficiencies.
Attention is now shifting to what direction the FCT Administration will take next, especially regarding the implementation of its ongoing revenue overhaul and how the new acting leadership will navigate the expectations that follow.
The coming weeks are likely to reveal the administration’s long-term plan for the FCT Internal Revenue Service and the broader impact on governance within the capital.
