Africa-Press – Nigeria. Human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu has said that the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, needs a mayor and not a minister.

Reacting, an X user, @jayeobajaye said, “If we are even copying the American system of government then we should copy it as a whole and not the partial way that is leading us nowhere.”
