The Agricultural and Rural Development Secretariat of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) confirmed the looting of its Dei-Dei warehouse by FCT residents on Sunday, citing economic hardships.
The spokesperson for the ARD Secretariat, Zakari Aliyu, revealed that the facility had been ransacked, with looters taking all stored items and causing significant damage by removing roofs and windows.
The FCT Minister of State, Dr Mariya Mahmoud, and FCT Mandate Secretary, Lawan Geidam, plan to visit the warehouse on Monday for further assessment.
Aliyu urged patience for more detailed information on the incident, emphasizing the extensive damage inflicted beyond the theft of food items.
