The Head of Civil Service for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Mrs. Grace Adayilo, has passed away. Reports indicate that she slumped and died in the early hours of Monday, though the actual cause of death is yet to be confirmed.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had, in October last year, approved her appointment as the first female and indigenous Head of Service of the FCT. Until her death, she was celebrated as a trailblazer, being the first indigene of Abuja to occupy the prestigious position in the FCT Administration.
Her last official outing was on Thursday, where she represented the Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike, at the G7 Security Meeting in Abuja.
