Director of FCT Water Board Redeployed
The Hon. Minister of FCT, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, CON, has approved the redeployment of the Acting Director of FCT Water Board, Engr. Jiniya B. Anto.  He was relieved of his position over incompetence, insubordination and a vote of no confidence passed on him by members of the Governing Board of the FCT Water Board led by their Chairman, Alhaji Alhassan Gwagwa.
The Board members accused the Acting Director of “failure to seek and refusal to seek and provide vital and necessary information to enable the Board perform the statutory functions it was appointed for”. They also accused him of “disobliging attitude, disdain and disregard for Board members, their decisions, requests and directives”.

Following his redeployment, the Deputy Director, Quality Control of the FCT Water Board, Mr. Michael O. Adebayo has been directed to oversee the affairs of the Agency on acting capacity pending the appointment of a substantive Director. The Hon. Minister has also directed that an interview should be conducted as soon as possible for qualified senior officers for the appointment of a new Director.
