By Stanley Onyekwere

The FCT Administration has reiterated its desire to intensify efforts at eradicating illiteracy especially in all the rural areas of Abuja, the nation’s capital.

This position was made known by the Permanent Secretary for FCT Administration, Olusade Adesola during a recent fiesta organised by  FCT Department of Mass Education in Karu, in Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC).

Adesola, who was represented by Faseyi Nathaniel explained that the department, which is saddled with the responsibility of making sure that people at all levels know how to read and write will always be supported to do more.

He however, commended the efforts of the current director of the Department,  Titilayo Alayande for her innovations that had repositioned all the centres across the Six Area Councils.
