Alleged Threat to Life, Property: Abuja Residents Cry to Wike, IG, Urge Respect of Court Order
Alex Enumah in Abuja Some residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, have raised the alarm over alleged threat to their lives and property situated at the Idu area
Some residents of Abuja's Idu area have raised an SOS message to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and the Inspector-General of Police, alleging threats to their lives and property. The Valington Premium City Estate Idu Owners Association, through their Board of Trustees member Chidi Imoko, wrote to the authorities, demanding urgent intervention to prevent further destruction of properties at Plot 93, Cadastral Zone E06, Gousa District.
The plot is currently at various levels of completion by Wingwall Design and Constructions Ltd, LCR Limited, and Cityview Parks and Resort, who are allegedly taking the law into their own hands, employing violence and criminal destruction of properties. Despite an active court order from the FCT High Court, the estate developer and their associates are still encroaching on subscribers' plots, marking houses for demolition, and building fences around the land.
The residents are not contesting ownership of the land but are concerned about losing their investments as most are retirees who have put their life savings into the project.
