The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister has launched an initiative to remove all shanties and repatriate individuals who have illegally occupied the city, causing nuisance and disorder. This effort aims to restore Abuja’s original master plan and ensure the city’s sanitation and safety.
Real estate developers have expressed their support for the FCT Minister’s mission, recognizing the need to revitalize the city and make it a pride of Nigeria. Currently, Nigeria lacks a safe city, and Abuja’s rapid decay has become a pressing concern.
The FCT Minister’s plan to bring sanity to Abuja is a welcome development, and its success will depend on the collaboration of all stakeholders, including residents, developers, and government agencies.
As Abuja embarks on this transformation journey, it’s essential to acknowledge the city’s rich history and cultural heritage. The city was carefully planned to represent a central vision for Nigeria, with a blend of modern infrastructure and traditional architecture ¹.
With the FCT Minister’s commitment to revitalizing Abuja, the city is poised to become a symbol of Nigeria’s growth and development, offering a high quality of life for its residents and a welcoming environment for visitors.
