The National Council for Arts and Culture was established by Decree No. 3 of 1975 and amended by Decree No. 5 of 1987, it is a federal government organ charged with the responsibility of coordinating, development and promotion of the living Arts and culture of Nigeria at national and international fora. </div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
The National Festival of Arts and Culture as of today remains one of the major cultural festival that serves as a great platform for mobilizing the people as it showcases talents and projects  the values of our heritage as well develop the spirit of national identity and peaceful coexistence.</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /><div dir="auto">
This year, NAFEST 2019 will be holding in Edo State with the theme "Nigeria: Our Royalty, Our Pride" from the 19th to 26th of October, 2019. This will be the 32th of its kind and it is expected that countries like Senegal, Mali, France, Ghana and many more will be coming.</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
However, Adamawa State will not be left out of this festival this year as it is set for  the up coming event. In an interview with granted by the  Deputy Permanent Secretary, Art Council and Director, Mrs Sasso B. Ali, she said Adamawa is well prepared because there is a financial backing from the Government. She is full of praise to Rt. Hon. Adamu Umaru for the support he has given to the Ministry and the Art Council, and stated that, for the past 10 years, the State has not participated in NAFEST but now, there is a backing from the present Government.</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
As for the level of preparedness,  Mrs Sasso said team Adamawa is well prepared for most of the competitions. The team will engage in drama, junior wrestling, traditional cuisine and dance. The level of readiness of the team is super and she is hopeful that a cup will be won.</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
Sasso, explained that the selection of participants was based on good performance from each of the competitors. She also hopes the team will participate in the opening ceremony march pass as it will get the State the opportunity to show the large ethic groups it has, as it will be depicted during the march pass. </div>
<div dir="auto">
<br /></div>
<div dir="auto">
 </div>
<div dir="auto">
More so, she believes that if all works well maybe, Adamawa State will someday host NAFEST, this will boost not only our internally generated revenue, but everyone in the State, it  will also transform the State. Our tourism sector will bloom , even food vendors and the state will be on the world radar. She also encouraged children who are good in arts to pursue their dreams. on the other hand,  she encouraged parents to give their children all the necessary support as most celebrities come for low income homes, only to change the families situation. Parents should encourage their wards to pursue their dreams.</div>

<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Malam Muhammad Musa Bello has restated the commitment of the FCT Administration towards the provision OF affordable housing for workers in the Federal Capital Territory.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">Malam Bello, who made this disclosure in Abuja on Friday during an inspection visit of the ongoing NLC/TUC Mass Housing Estate at the Apo District of the Federal Capital Territory, said the provision of affordable housing for workers was one of the cardinal objectives of President Muhammadu Buhari’s Administration.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">The FCT Minister, who was accompanied on the inspection visit by the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Ayuba Wabba, specifically stated that President Buhari has mandated the FCTA to build at least 5,000 affordable housing units for workers and other Nigerians residing in the Federal Capital Territory.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">He said the prime location of the 3,600 unit Civil Service Housing Estate, was carefully selected by the FCDA to ensure accessibility via a proposed 10 lane ultra-modern expressway that would pass near the estate, going all the way down to Gwagwalada.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">The Minister assured that the key issues of infrastructure provision will also be addressed by the FCDA to ensure the speedy completion of the project.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">According to the Minister, “I am speaking the mind of Mr. President that housing, especially for workers, is a very important cardinal objective of this administration and this kind of project will meet that objective.”</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">He continued: “President Muhammadu Buhari all his life has always been a man of the people and most of those that voted for him were the workers, the farmers and the petty traders. So, I came in here this morning with the President of the NLC to come and see the NLC/TUC Housing Estate under construction.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">“Obviously you can see it’s in a very prime location. Substantial work has been done and I’m very confident that the challenges will be surmounted. Even my humble self as Minister, part of the mandate given to me is to ensure that we build 5,000 houses and we are working towards that. So, this is good and is commendable. There are challenges but by the grace of God, we will surmount the challenges,” Bello said.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;"> The NLC President, in his response said Nigerian workers were very passionate about the provision of shelter, noting that the desire of every worker is to have a roof over his head before retirement from the service.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">“So, this project is very dear to us and also all Nigerian workers. It’s a concept that was developed to make affordable housing possible to Nigerian workers. It’s not like any other project. It’s tagged affordable and that’s why the prices were actually set from the beginning. We are not leaving it to market forces.  </span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">“I am extremely happy that when we approached the Honourable Minister, he said that he wanted to personally visit and inspect the ongoing work and I think this is a demonstration of commitment”.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "century gothic" , sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; margin: 0px;">He continued, “I can say that Nigerian workers that subscribed to this project, if they see this today, they will be extremely happy because they want these houses to be completed and they want also to be part of this historic process of making sure that those houses are actually delivered,” he said.</span></div>
<div style="background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: auto; border: medium; line-height: 13pt; margin-bottom: 13.33px; padding: 0in; text-align: justify;">
