FCTA dislodges over 1,000 illegal occupants

The Abuja Metropolitan Management Council , under the Federal Capital Territory Administration , has dislodged over 1000 ‘illegal’ residents in the inner Northern parkway in Wuse Zone 3, Abuja.

He said: “Also disturbing is that criminals and miscreants have made this location a safe haven. So, we decided to come and clear the shanties and remove the criminals that have taken over the road corridor to give Abuja its desired beauty. We can’t allow this again. Our aim is to beautify the city and make Abuja a city we will all be proud of.”

“From what we can see, there are a huge number of people illegally residing here. So, if we can relocate them within a very short possible time, they will come back here again. “You see, some of the occupants are very young; some with children, and out of my pocket, I have donated a small amount of money to enable them to relocate immediately. Chairman of the community, Malam Mohammed Musa, confirmed the figure, adding that they included 15 family members.
