For allegedly operating illegally, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike has banned the Park and Pay scheme in Abuja, the nation’s capital city.
To this end, Wike declared that immediate action would be taken to dismantle the scheme, which he claimed allows the consultant operating it to take 80%, and the FCT administration takes 20% of the revenue generated from it.
He revealed this yesterday during a live media parley with a select broadcast stations, in Abuja, to mark his one year in office.

The minister, who frowned at the sharing formula of the scheme, which he said; “appears to have been operating under the radar, highlights a critical flaw in the system that allows private consultants to pocket the lion’s share of revenues meant for the government.
“These are things we need to fight within the system. Sometimes, if you don’t bring it to our attention, we may not know. We can’t be everywhere,” Wike emphasized, underscoring the challenges faced in overseeing the sprawling FCT administration.
“The incident unfolded when a senior advocate reached out to him with a troubling report that the scheme that has been siphoning government funds under the guise of a legal operation.
“He said ‘Sir, some people came to our office and are trying to seize our cars. They claim to be from the Transport Secretariat.
“I asked him to give the person the phone, and I asked the person, ‘Who are you?’ He said, he is from ‘Park and Pay from the Transport Secretariat.”
Wike continued: “I wasn’t aware of this, so I called the person in charge of it. I asked, ‘Who collects the money?’ Unknown to us, there are agreements between the secretariat and some people who claim to be consultants.
“So, the consultant takes 80%, and the FCT administration takes 20%,” Wike explained, visibly disturbed by the discovery.
“I’m trying to say that it’s illegal, and nothing like that exists. And if my colleague hadn’t called me, I wouldn’t have known.”
