We Are Always Ready To Help You

The FCT Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was established by Section 8 of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) Act of 1999 – which stipulates “the establishment for each state of the Federation, a State Emergency Management Committee”. Hence, it’s coming into being in June 2013 after due approval by the Honourable Minister, FCT, to operate as a State-level Agency in line with the Act. FEMA coordinates the multi-sectoral emergency preparedness and response plan for the FCT and ensures that this plan is implemented by all relevant agencies.
