The Federal Capital Territory is the home of Abuja, the capital of Nigeria. The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) was created on 31st December 2004 following the scrapping of the Ministry of the Federal Capital Territory (MFCT). Since its establishment, the FCTA has been administered by the following Ministers.
* Mallam Nasir Ahmad El-rufai 2004-2007
* Dr. Aliyu Moddibbo Umar 2007- 2008
The establishment of the Federal capital Territory Administration is one of the key elements of the Administrative reforms of former President Olusegun Obasanjo to reposition the FCT towards enhanced service delivery.
The reforms brought about significant changes in the administrative structure of the FCT. In line with this, Seven (7) new Mandate Secretariats were created. These are:
· Education secretariat
· Transport Secretariat
· Agriculture and Rural Development Secretariat
· Health and Human Services
· Social development Secretariat
· Legal Services Secretariat
· Area Council secretariat
The establishment of the Secretariats heralded the appointment of non-career civil servants into mainstream administration of the FCT. The idea was aimed at bringing governance closer to the people by limiting the administrative bottlenecks that hitherto slowed down developmental process of the FCT.
On 29th October 2008, following a cabinet shakeup of the Federal Executive Council (FEC), Mr. Aderemi Babalola, Minister of state, Finance was appointed to supervise the FCTA. However, on 17th December, 2008 following the reconstitution of the FEC, Alhaji Mohammed Adamu Aliero was formally sworn-in as the substantive Minister of the FCT.
