Land was leased to Chief Ogbebor’s construction company in 1985 when his company was working in the construction of Abuja, madam due to her lack of knowledge believed the land is a freehold, government showed up after 40 years saying madam your lease done expire, she started crying in the press.

Ogbebor’s friends heard her, appealed to the Honorable Minister to grant her another extension of the lease which he did under the powers he possesses under the land use act.

Igno rants will just be celebrating in their ignorance, this case also is a very simple case, the admiral can use his military connections to help him appeal & apply to the governor (Minister in this instance) in the prescribed form to convert the certificate of occupancy from public purposes, to residential or commercial purposes, which the honorable minister can do within his powers.

Yet nonsense noise cho cho cho people wey never buy 1 piece of land for their lives b4, & have no understanding of the provisions of the Land Use Act, na them go they shout pass.

Take it or leave it, Wike will officially sign off that land to the military. Tinubu had instructed him to move the bulldozer and he complied immediately.

Wike's tenure will end and that land will remain

Keep memorizing Nigerian laws.

Interesting honorary degree.

I leave u with peace in your ignorance.

You call it ignorance but you are living the reality. Hopefully you will run into a police checkpoint today
and they will prove to you how lawful the country has been.

Which one tastes better: Tache' pistachio milk or palm wine?

Palm wine of course! Why? Because most people here have not tasted pistachio milk and cannot compare effectively. The people who say Nigeria is great can be excused because they don't really know what life is all about. They have never lived in a society with 24/7 power supply, covered drainage, clean water, well-equipped hospitals with emergency services, good road network and salaries are paid on time.

Don't debate them. Pray for them.

There is truth in the message. But how do we ascertain that it was not from a mischievous impostor?

Burob:
Thank you very much, I beg help me educate crownofgold, kilmot, Invertedhammer, chidiokay, Jmoore & Co.

Presidency cannot even allocate land to him under the Land Use Act, na still this same Nyesom Wike that has the exclusive jurisdiction under Nigerian law.

Section 5 of The Land Use Act, it shall be lawful for the Governor, in this instance the FCT minister in respect of land, whether or not in an urban area:-

to grant statutory rights of occupancy to any person for all purposes; to grant easements appurtenant to statutory rights occupancy; to demand rental for any such land granted to any person.

to revise the said rental -
(i) at such intervals as may be specified in the certificate
of occupancy; or
(ii) where no intervals are specified in the certificate or
occupancy at any time during the term of the statutory
rights of occupancy;

to impose a penal rent for a breach of any covenant in a
certificate of occupancy requiring the holder to develop or effect improvements on the land the subject of the certificate of occupancy and to revise such penal rent as provided in to impose a penal rent for a breach of any condition, express.

or implied, which precludes the holder of a statutory right of occupancy from alienating the right of or any part thereof by sale, mortgage, transfer or possession, sub-lease or request or otherwise howsoever without the prior consent of the Governor.

to waive. Wholly or partially, except as otherwise
prescribed; all or any of the covenant or conditions of which a statutory right of occupancy is subject where, owing to special circumstances, compliance therewith would be impossible or great hardship would be imposed upon the holder;

to extend except as otherwise prescribed, the time to the holder of a statutory right of occupancy for performing any of the conditions of the right of occupancy up.

Lolz.

People like you are online quoting laws and Constitution up and down while those in power do what they want. Ever wonder why Nigeria is referred to as a lawless society? Government routinely disobey court orders that don't suit them. So much for your Constitution and laws

Those lands belong to the retired and current high-ranking military officials. Wike cannot revoke that land. Even if he tries, only a slowpoke will accept the reallocation and try to develop it. The best he can do is quietly issue them the R of O. Tinubu is wise. Wike tried that nonsense with Mrs Rita Lori and got shut down. Go back to the video and listen carefully to Wike's phone call. Did you hear how he addressed the person on the other line? That should tell you all you need to know

Henceforth you will never hear about this matter again. It will be resolved quietly away from public curiosity.
/

/

One thing for sure, Wike can never command great presence again after the incident.

/

jmoore:
Which kind apology is this?

It is like Trump apologising to Ned Nwoko for the behaviour of Regina Daniels.

/
Sycophancy is an art.

Wike's fragile ego needs intermittent massage.

/

/

Fact!

Wike did not call Lt Yerima a fool.

He called him a full...as reported by APC goons.

She leased a girlfriend. She couldn't afford the payments anymore and she got repossessed.

The President saw only one person (ex Senate President) today. He is truly accessible. I love how politicians talk to Nigerians like they are addressing morons.

/

/
Any summary?

Falana is one person that I never care to listen to what he says nor read what he writes.

/

/
If they can't show what they did with all the subsidy savings, I wish them good luck.

mascot87:
Wike did not lose. Rule of law lost. Civilian lost against military. This shows that Military can do anything they like and nothing will happen. The Nigerian people lost. Democracy lost.
So tomorrow, military can do anything to Nigerians and nothing will happen.
They can bully anybody and it will be in vain.
Military authority won against Democratic Authority even in the face of military illegality.

Last last, na all of us go collect... If you celebrate this, then you are celebrating future pains that will be meted on you by the military because you cannot escape it

Are you a new immigrant to Nigeria?

If Democracy is as practiced in Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Uganda, Cameroun and Nigeria; do the people really need it? The level of impunity and arrogance of leaders in these nations would make satan envious.

All these decades, nothing in Burkina Faso and Congo showed that a Western nation was in-charge. Both nations laid in ruins while their resources were daily shipped to France. What manner of democracy?

Democracy is just a fancy word that has no impact on good governance. The people will know a progressive government when they see one away from billboards and propaganda.

As it stands, perhaps South Africa may be the only true democracy in Africa.

Did the President send Wike there in official capacity to represent him or was Wike there as the Minister of FCT? Where did loco parentis come into play? The SAN should not come near a normal and regulated law court with this ignorant argument. The only Commander-in-Chief is the President and that authority is not transferable to appointed lackeys.

" kirayedar ke adhikar" for tenant.

That language doesn't sound Nigerian.

ALTERNATEID:
You can be rest assured that bulldozer will pull down that structure and the former CNS will either go home to cry or go to court. This is a battle he can’t win. El-Rufai as FCT minister ordered the demolition of the headquarters of Ministry of works and even the personal house of the then PDP national chairman. So, who is a former CNS that thinks he’s above the law?

/
Sebi na Wike go drive the bulldozer himself?

I can guarantee you that Wike is not going back to that property.

This is how Nigeria works---only the law-abiding citizens suffer.

If Joe Igbokwe is a true Igbo man as claimed, he will understand the Igbo proverb which states that a small bird dancing on the road has something beating drums for it.
The audacity of the junior officer is a pointer to what's in the offing. He carried his orders to the letter. If Wike is aggrieved, he knows what to do. He cannot transfer his personal beef with the retired CNS on other military officers.
/

Salewa97:
Wike should be allowed to do his work without unnecessary distractions.

Those who are interested in the land grabbed issue should take it to court.

Na court go eventually decide who get the land.

/
Which court?

Wike is causing problems that may take decades and numerous lawsuits to fix in Abuja. He cannot arbitrarily revoke lands and reallocate to his cronies. He tried that rubbish with Mrs Rita Lori who straightened him out. Unluckily for him, these hectares in question were allocated to former and current high-ranking military officials. He better be ready for war. As inter alia noted, this is one distraction Tinubu doesn't need right now.

/

/
The funny thing is that these ones doing unnecessary gragra to impress Wike, one accidental discharge and he will kpai. Wike won't send his family. And that's end of the case. Imagine the audacity to fight for a Nigerian politician. No be juju be that? I noticed that the smart ones take style move back as tension begin rise. Who want kpai for nonsense?

What business can a 45 years old man start with 1m in ph to get 5k above daily.

/
Remove pride and you will be ok.

1. Find who sabi cook better stew, contract am.
2. Buy plantains, potatoes, yam, fish and start roasting.
3. Cook beans and be ready
4. Get minor necessary ingredients.
5. Get a big umbrella and tables.
6. Find a busy location or in front of your house.

Business don set. Bole' is a big business in PH.
You work only 3pm - 7pm except on Sundays.

Nigerians copy the wrong thing the wrong way.
They want to act and live like Americans.
Unbeknownst to them, those baddies online already have all their children before 25. Most of them are single mothers being catered by the government. It is normal to see a 24yrs old with 3 kids. But a 35-yrs old Nigerian lady is still out there competing with 20yrs olds and cheering life without children nor husband.

Who wins? Whoever is organizing Shiloh every year-- female customers full ground. Rub their insecurities in their faces, give them hope and the ladies open their wallets.

/

/
The public humiliation and message to Wike (FCT Minister ) was well-packaged and delivered by a junior officer.

Trump still has Tinubu by the balls. He has no time for this kind of shenanigan right now.

I can guarantee you that the order did not come from just one very high-ranking military officer.

The officer (whose father is a retired General) has been turned to a NATIONAL HERO!

chiagozien:
Nobody is attacking them, telling them to go back to their Yoruba land to do their Oba thing, just like children of perdition always do.




Nobody see them celebrating their Yoruba day as disrespecting their host.

/
There are people paid by the government to create tribal chaos online. They are well-funded. They throw in ethnic jabs to lure unsuspecting tribal bigots to give life to their comments. The primary goal is to distract and keep people engaged in trivial issues while their sponsors carry on with endless looting of the commonwealth. Don't think they are operating in a vacuum when you read their comments on Nairaland. They are not APC supporters. They could care less. They are only interested in their stipends.

/

/
Bullies are cowards.

Wike had to turn away on realizing that the military guys mean business. He can only bark at those who treat him like demigods.

The commander stood on business. He reduced Wike to a bloody civilian with a false sense of power.

Even when he invoked his power as the FCT Minister, the man no send am. That really bruised his ego especially being that
it happened in public.

Do you know how many times that Wright brothers failed before aeroplane could fly?

Do you know how many times Thomas Edison failed before electric bulb came to fruition?

BMW was founded in 1916, yet their vehicles are still being recalled in 2025.

Don't mock those who make attempts and failed. Jeer at those with potentials but fail to lift a finger as exemplified by Nigeria. Without China, you cannot afford a toothbrush or toothpaste or the numerous electronic gadgets you enjoy. Why? Because your country doesn't invent shit. Just bunch of obligate consumers! And you have the audacity to mock them?

Much ado about nothing.

US does not provide free or even subsidised medical care to foreigners.

You can only get medical attention if it is an emergency, which makes sense.

/
There are many ways around it and that's what Trump is trying to prevent. Some will call Emergency services and claim chest pain. EKG shows normal sinus rhythm. But guess what? They are already in the hospital clogging the system and eating up resources.

DrMB:
40+ years in power? What's the first word that comes to mind when you see leaders like Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo (43 years) and Paul Biya (43 years) on this list?
Looking at the backgrounds, mostly military or militia, do you think a long tenure is more common or easier to achieve when coming from a non-civilian background? Share your thoughts! 👇

This is the evidence that the worst Democracy is better than military rule as usually vomited by obligate Neanderthals.

/

/
And they comfortably recorded and posted it from the battlefront. Why don't APC goons give up on the infantile lies and run-of-the-mill propaganda?

Tinubu needs to act decisively. All these childish pranks are not the solution to the gross insecurity ravaging the country.
