Senate orders Minister-of-Demolition (FCTA) to HALT demolishing FCT Houses

The Chairman Senate Committee on FCT, Senator Smart Adeyemi says the developer of Minanul Estate which was demolished by the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) did not have the approval to build the estate.

Senator Adeyemi made the remark when the joint committee (Senate and House) on FCT met with developers and FCDA officials.

The FCDA demolished hundreds of residential homes in Minanuel Housing Estate, Lugbe in the Federal Capital Territory recently.

However the committee has stopped the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) from going ahead with the planned demolition of 37 other housing estates in Abuja. Source
