The Deputy Director in charge of Aesthetics & Amenities of the Department of Development Control (DDC), Abuja Metropolitan Management Council(AMMC), Arc. Adamu Abuja while speaking to journalists Tuesday in Abuja, emphasised that residents of FCT who deface the city with posters, banners and billboards of all kinds are to face penalties soon to be imposed by FCTA.
