  "summary": "FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has signed 26,272 Certificates of Occupancy (C-of-O) in three years, surpassing the 13-year record of 8,697 C-of-Os produced and signed between 2010 and 2023. This achievement, according to the Federal Capital Territory Administration, is part of President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda and aims to ease doing business in the FCT. The simplified process for issuing C-of-Os, including an automated notification system, has contributed to the faster completion of land allottees' payments and collection of documents.",
