Timeline
Alhaji Abubakar Garba Koko, OFR, Sarkin Yakin Gwandu, (1937 – 26 December 2003), was a Nigerian civil servant, Administrator, and Politician who served as the first Executive Secretary of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), Abuja. He planned and executed the development of Nigeria's new federal capital in the 80s.
The move of Nigeria's Capital to Abuja was controversial, and the biggest opposition to it, was led by Obafemi Awolowo. Awolowo as a politician and a representative of the Yoruba people defended their claims against the move of the Capital from Lagos. During the Hotly contested campaign for presidency, He vowed to hire the American Walt Disney Corporation to convert the new site (Abuja) into an amusement park if he was elected. However, after his election as president, Alhaji Shehu Shagari showed a lot of support for the project and pushed for its early completion. His first Journey outside of Lagos after his election, was to Abuja, where he visited contractors and workers on site to urge a speedy completion of the project. On his return, he confided in Alhaji Abubakar Koko his disappointment with the slow progress of work. Shehu Shagari rescheduled the planned relocation to Abuja from 1986 to 1982 which later proved difficult.
Abraham Krushkov addressed the final report of the Abuja master plan to Alhaji Abubakar Koko on the 15th of February, 1979. In the preface to the master plan, the following declaration was made by IPA:
The International Planning Associates (IPA) was commissioned in June, 1977, by the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) to produce the Abuja Master Plan and its regional grid. According to the terms of reference, the master planning process was to include a review of relevant data, selection of a capital city site, preparation of regional and city plans and the accompanying design and development standards manual.
From 1955 to 1981, Koko worked as a Teacher and Administrative officer, and later served on many company boards.
He was born in Birnin Kebbi, in 1937, and attended elementary school in Sokoto, and middle school in Katsina. Koko later attended the Ilorin Institute of Education where he trained to become a Teacher. He also studied administration at Ahmadu Bello University, and later at Wadham College, Oxford University.
