“We Will Continue Demolition in Abuja, Nobody Can Stop Us” – WIKE

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has stated that his administration would continue the demolition of illegal shanties in Abuja, stating that no amount of protest will halt the exercise.

Wike made the statement during a visit to the Ruga community along the Wuye axis of the nation’s capital. He emphasized that, moving forward, his administration will engage in dialogue with occupants of unauthorized settlements to develop long-term solutions that discourage illegal encroachments.

Addressing the recent protest in which demonstrators accused the FCTA of land grabbing, Wike dismissed the protest as a “misplaced priority.”
