Buhari’s children affected as FCTA threatens to revoke land rights over ‘unpaid dues’


 The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has threatened to revoke the certificates of occupancy (C of O) of the plots of land owned by prominent individuals and corporate organisations in Abuja.

 

This notice affects landowners in the Maitama district of Abuja, who have two weeks to settle outstanding payments for their C of O or risk losing their property rights.

 

The two-week notice titled “Demand notice for payment of Right of Occupancy bills for issuance of Certificates of Occupancy on all lands allocated at Maitama II District, Cadastral Zone, A10, Abuja” was issued to 3,273 allottees.

 

The administration cited infrastructural development within the district as the reason for the notice.

 

 “The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), through the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), is carrying out infrastructural development in Maitama II (A10) District,” the notice reads.

 

“All allottees who have not paid their bills for the Certificate of Occupancy (C-of-O) are hereby advised to settle their bills in full within two (2) weeks from the date of this publication.

 

“All affected allottees are informed that failure to pay all outstanding land bills, rents, fees, and charges within the stipulated grace period will result in the withdrawal of the offers of Rights of Occupancy (R-of-O) over the said plots of land by the honourable minister of the FCT, and reallocation of the lands.”
