Abuja – April 12, 2024 – Viewpoint Housing News.
The Civil Liberties Organisation has appealed to President Bola Tinubu and Ireti Kingibe, representing the FCT, to intervene in the demolition of Nicholas Ukachukwu’s 214-hectare Asokoro Estate.
On Thursday, the CLO chairman in Anambra, Vincent Ezekwueme, in Enugu, said the appeal for intervention became necessary to restore normalcy, justice, and peace.
“It is of prime importance to note that Honourable Ukachukwu remains a patriot, statesman, detribalised Nigerian, entrepreneur and renowned employer of labour who believe in the Nigerian project.
“His investments cut across all the zones in the country as such, deserved encouragement, support and commendations. He has contributed and still contributes immensely towards solving housing challenges in FCT and its environs.
“President Tinubu, as a statesman, patriot, democrat and father of the nation, should halt the demolition and ensure justice, peaceful, patriotic and amicable resolution of the crisis to the glory of God,” Mr Ezekwueme stated.
He explained that the government should always hold their officials who gave approvals to developers accountable, not unsuspecting genuine investors.
“Unfortunately, the demolition, if not halted, will certainly exacerbate housing challenges in the FCT and its environs.
When one suffers directly, all of us suffer indirectly,” Mr Ezekwueme added.
