    Victims of a demolished estate in the Sabon-Lugbe area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja have raised alarm over the alleged planned sale of the demolished property.

    According to the victims, information has it that the FCT Minister has put the land for sale for the sum of N30 billion.

    The victims who made the allegation on Tuesday in Abuja, while speaking with judiciary Correspondents advised Nigerians against the purchase of the said property, which is a current issue of litigation at a High Court of the FCT.

    Speaking through their counsel, Mr Kalu Agu Kalu, the victims who presented some documents affirming the lawful allocation of the land to them warned that anybody or group who buys the land would be doing so in breach of the law and at his or her own expense.




    They insisted that the land upon which their over N200 billion building were erected was allocated to them with due process of the law and upon payment of all the statutory fees.

    Kalu said a private company name withheld with foreigners as directors was been used to dispose of their land at N30 billion.

    To vent their anger against the alleged injustice, the lawyer said his clients and the over 100 families already rendered homeless would soon embark on massive protests in designated areas in Abuja, to draw the attention of the presidency to their plight.

    To ensure that the protest is peaceful, the lawyer said his clients have mandated him to write officially to the Inspector General of Police and the Director General of the Department of State Service, DSS to ensure that the protest is not hijacked by hoodlums.

    *As we have said earlier, the land is genuinely allocated to us and we have all the necessary title documents released to us upon payment of statutory fees.

    “Besides, we filed a suit at the High Court of the FCT and against the FCT minister and two others and served processes of the suit on parties, yet the demolition was done despite the pendency of the case.

    “Information at our disposal is that the authorities of the FCT have put the land for sale, we are hereby issuing a warning that no Nigerian should buy the land or any portion of it as doing so would be tantamount to wasting resources.

    “We hereby challenge the media to investigate our claims to the ownership of the land and come out with an independent report,” Kalu said.

    The lawyer reinstated his appeal to President Bola Tinubu to call the FCT minister to order so that peace and social and economic policies of government can flourish.

    He assured that his client would not take laws into their hands despite the glaring injustice but would pursue their litigation to a just conclusion.

    The lawyer reaffirm that his clients have absolute confidence that the judiciary would in the end do justice to the injustice against them.
