The FCT also said that henceforth, any land fraudster and unauthorised developer found developing without approval will be arrested and prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others.
The coordinator of Abuja Metropolitan Management Council (AMMC), Umar Shuaibu stated this during the demolition exercise in the communities, yesterday.
He said most of the developers only visit the department of development control to open files, and after getting the file number, they continue with their buildings without completing the necessary procedures.
Shuaibu described the buildings without proper documents as fraudulent acts, which he said must not be allowed to continue in the city, adding that the area is prone to flooding and other environmental disasters.
“Any development in Abuja without approval or documents from the FCT department of development control is a fraudulent act.
