According to a bill sponsored by Gaza Gbefwi, a lawmaker from Nasarawa, the board will focus on generating funds to resettle and compensate original inhabitants of areas in the FCT which have been taken over by the government.
Leading the debate on the bill during plenary session on Tuesday, the lawmaker said several attempts to compensate indigenes had failed to yield positive outcomes.He said the board will be chaired by an indigene, while members will comprise representatives from the six area councils in the FCT and the traditional council “who are knowledgeable and familiar with the challenges of compensation and resettlement”.
“To address the displacement and resettlement problems, different resettlement policy strategies have been utilised, yet the resettlement policy and strategies experimented have not yielded any positive result.“Among the challenges found inhibiting the effective implementation of the resettlement policy strategies in FCT include corruption, lack of funding, inadequate involvement of the indigenous people or community members in the implementation of resettlement policies, among others.
