In his determination to bring rapid development to the council, the Executive Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council, AMAC, Hon. Christopher Zakka Maikalangu, Wednesday, paid a historic courtesy visit to CAN Group of companies in Abuja.
This was made known to Journalists by the
Senior Special Assistant Media and Public Affairs to AMAC Chairman, Kingsley Madaki, on Wednesday.
From inception, CAN Group of companies, comprising the Creatify Digital Africa Ltd, Attachi Advocacy Initiative and Nadel Connected Development, has been known to have the vision and mission to invest and manage assets in portfolios that create alternative solutions, sociocultural advancement and all-inclusive development.
Speaking during the visit, Maikalangu expressed satisfaction with the different initiatives and values which Creatify, Attachi and Nadel as well as the CAN Group have developed.
He said that there is need for AMAC to enter into mutual partnership with CAN Group of companies as the partnership will positively impact on the area council administration.
He said: “One of the key agenda of my administration is to ensure that rapid development is brought to the council. I am someone that will not sleep or rest until I see my people smile and development brought to all facets of the council. My visit today is to exploit all areas of partnership for the mutual benefit of AMAC and CAN Group of companies.
“I have always said that the time of playing politics has gone. This is time to provide good governance to the people of AMAC, who trusted me and voted for me to lead them. “There is need for AMAC to move beyond politics. We have a clear vision/roadmap on how to do that. My coming to CAN Group of companies is for us to discuss and see how we can take the council forward. Hopefully, we’ll reach common grounds and collaborate for the betterment of the council.
Also speaking, the Chairman/CEO of CAN Group of companies, Mr Bitrus Lawrence Garki, who earlier received the AMAC chairman, immensely thanked the Chairman for the visit, revealing that CAN Group of companies runs an open door policy and will always partner with AMAC for the better of the council.
