Administering a city like the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, in a hurry to catch up with its peers elsewhere, can be a challenge. Conceived and
designed essentially as the administrative capital of Nigeria, other factors not initially taken into consideration at the time of its creation by the Justice Akinnola Aguda Committee, are expanding its roles. Some of these factors which range from insecurity to the all-pervasive Nigerian factor are changing the face of the city in a negative sense. Because of the happenings in neighbouring states, the people feel that Abuja serves as a place of safety.
Furthermore, a drive around the town will suggest to a careful observer the preponderance of lawlessness of the city dwellers who conduct themselves in a manner that points to the fact that there is a lack of appreciation of the intents and purposes of making the FCT a modern city in terms of aesthetics and architectural attractions.
Even worse, in the opinion of this newspaper, is the conduct of pedestrians who defy the authorities by insisting on not using bridges that cost the administration huge sums of money to build.
