Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has vowed to revoke the lands of anyone who acquired them illegally, regardless of their relationship with him.
According to his spokesman, Lere Olayinka, Wike is prepared to take action against friends, family, and even enemies who fail to regularize their land allocation within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Speaking on Arise TV’s Morning Show on Friday, Olayinka warned that those who fail to comply with the regularization process will lose their properties.
He also revealed that the Federal Capital Development Authority has published the names of 9,532 Nigerians who owe the government for failing to regularize their land allocations within the FCT.
The list includes notable figures such as former President Ibrahim Babangida and former Benue Governor Samuel Ortom. Olayinka emphasized that Wike will not show favoritism to anyone, stating, “What he is saying is that he will not deal with anyone based on friendship but on doing the right thing.”
His words: “Among the people named was former President Ibrahim Babangida and former Benue Governor Samuel Ortom. Ortom, a very close friend and political ally of the FCT Minister, had his name published.
“He says that if you have legitimate land ownership, even if you are his enemy, there will be no issue. However, if you don’t have legitimate ownership, even if you are his friend or wife, you will lose the land.
“I am saying this again: those whose names have been published, among the 9,532 people, should do what they need to do. If the government decides to revoke their allocation, they will go to TV stations and social media activists to speak for them.
“They now have the option to regularise their ownership, and we are calling on them to do so immediately. If they don’t, they will lose those lands. The minister will not consider whether you are his friend or enemy; he will only consider the legitimacy of your claims.”
