Countdown Begins as Dr. Jumai Ahmadu Prepares to Launch FCT’s Most Insightful Development Book
Abuja, Nigeria — Renowned author, administrator, and public communicator Dr. Jumai Ahmadu is set to unveil the second edition of her celebrated book, “The Evolution and Development of a Federal Capital Territory – Abuja.” The official book launch is scheduled for 12th December 2025, and anticipation is already building across Abuja’s literary and civic circles.
The newly revised edition, written by Dr. Jumai Ahmadu, provides an in-depth account of Abuja’s transformation—from its early conception as Nigeria’s new capital city to its rise as a strategic administrative, economic, and cultural centre. Known for her passion for public documentation and national development, Dr. Jumai Ahmadu uses this publication to highlight the policies, planning frameworks, historical milestones, and community stories that shaped the Federal Capital Territory.
Featuring Abuja’s symbolic city gate on its cover, the book mirrors the identity and aspirations of Nigeria’s capital. As Abuja continues to expand and redefine its administrative landscape, this edition arrives at a critical moment for students, policymakers, researchers, and residents seeking accurate and insightful knowledge about the capital’s growth.
The upcoming launch is expected to attract government officials, scholars, historians, civic leaders, and residents of the FCT. More than a literary gathering, it will serve as a platform to celebrate the intellectual contributions of Dr. Jumai Ahmadu and to deepen conversations around Abuja’s future development.
