The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) will on Monday commence sealing of 4,794 properties - including the PDP national secretariat - following revocation of titles over unpaid ground rents spanning nearly two decades. This move, affecting prime districts like Maitama and Asokoro, marks the toughest enforcement of Abuja's land laws in recent history.
  • Mass Revocation: 4,794 properties in CBD, Asokoro, Maitama, others have already been revoked since March 2025
  • PDP at Risk: Opposition party HQ faces seizure over alleged 19-year ground rent arrears
  • No Exceptions: FCTA warns action will proceed "without consideration to ownership"
  • Legal Clearance: Officials confirm no restraining court orders against enforcement
  • Expanding Dragnet: More debtors are being identified despite the grace period
The crackdown tests Wike's resolve against powerful defaulters while raising questions about selective enforcement against political opponents.

Should the government wield land revocation as a tool for revenue recovery, or does this risk politicization?
