The Head of Civil Service of the Federal Capital Territory, Mrs. Grace Adayilo, has died.
Reports indicate that she collapsed early on Monday morning and could not be revived. The cause of her death has not yet been disclosed.
Mrs. Adayilo made history in October last year when President Bola Tinubu approved her appointment as the first female and indigenous Head of Service of the FCT. She hailed from Abuja and was the first native to hold the position in the territory’s administration.
Her last public assignment was on Thursday, when she represented the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, at the G7 security meeting in Abuja.
