minister of the Federal Capital Territory , Nyesom Wike, saying the reports that the Minister had approved a partial demolition of the national monument was a fake news.
The Board, led by its chairman, the Etsu Nupe, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar, had visited the minister on Wednesday to seek clarification on the status of its plots 63 and 99, in the wake of the FCT Administration’s drive to recover all ground rent debts. “In such areas, we can say on religious grounds, instead of three months, we can give additional time but it is not targeted at anybody or group. Now you have come and explained, which reasonable man would not accept it. So our people should stop saying he is targeting some group or religion or ethnic group, no, it is in the interest of all of us.“We will extend it, so we will not restrict it to three months for you, as a religious group, because there is no money as people come to support you.
Accordingly, Wike has given the FCDA 24 hours to bring him up-to-speed on the issue to compensate the mosque for the portion of its undeveloped land, Plot 63, lost to the road interchange.
