Ireti Kingibe, senator representing the federal capital territory (FCT), has told FCT residents that programmes have been lined up for them in 2024.

In a statement by Nana Kazaure, her media aide, the lawmaker said she will work assiduously in 2024 to ensure that residents of the FCT enjoy a new lease of life through quality representation.

Kingibe urged her constituents to face the New Year with courage, resilience and a cast-iron determination to succeed.

She said as their representative, every move she makes in parliament will always be geared towards making life more meaningful for them.

“This year 2024 I will hit the ground running. We have to make up for lost time. There are a lot of programmes lined up and we are going to take their execution seriously,” Kingibe said.

“As governance is about providing citizens with the amenities, facilities and policies that will be conducive for their well-being and that also offers them the greatest scope for self-development and actualization.

“I will interface with officials of the Executive branch of Government and the Organized Private Sector as well as international organizations where possible, to fast track the development of the Federal Capital.”

The lawmaker said a key area of priority for her is the safety of her constituents, noting that as a legislator, she will press for more sophisticated policing of Abuja in order to checkmate the activities of criminal elements.

“Safety for me, is of prime concern,” she added.

“You can initiate the best policies, execute the best programmes, and provide world class facilities.

“If the people they are meant for are too scared, feel unsafe or are not alive to enjoy themselves, all efforts will be wasted.”
