FCT to restore seized lands to FHA

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) is to return all land allocations seized from the Federal Housing Authority (FHA) by previous administrations in the territory to the Authority.

FCT Minister, Senator Bala Mohammed, stated this while receiving members of the Board and Management of the Authority in his office in Abuja recently. He directed the Authority to furnish his office with details of its seized lands in Katampe and Zuba so that the allocations could be reinstated immediately.

Mohammed also gave assurance that the land allocated to FHA in the Central Business District of Abuja for the development of its corporate headquarters was intact. He said that the plot would be released as soon as the Authority paid the premium for it.

The Minister further directed the Federal Capital Development Authority to allocate land to the FHA to enable it sustain the tempo of housing delivery in the capital city.
