The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory , Nyesom Wike, has rejected the Nigerian Customs Service’s request to reconsider its revoked land by the FCT Administration.

Customs officers led by the Acting Comptroller-General, Adewale Adeniyi, on Wednesday visited Wike to request that the affected land be returned. Wike, however, declined to return the land but offered to sell it to the customs service. He also warned that the land would be revoked if not developed within a specific period.

“My policy now is that, before we give land to any agency, it must commit that it will develop the land within a certain number of years and if not developed, the FCT should take back the land.
