Wike and Bunmi Tunji Ojo are the real performing Ministers in this dispensation.

Well Done Sirs.

Are Nigerians being forced to apply for visas? Since you feel Nigerians are being siphoned by visa fees, the have the choice to stop applying for visas.

Not that I support the way the embassies and even foreign countries are treating Nigerians, but if we learn to stay in our country and develop it instead of trooping to foreign lands and start constituting nuisance, we would be treated better.
Also not that the embassies need to maintain their diplomatic staff and infrastructure. They pay their staff the same salary and allowances in as they would have been paid in their home country. They pay the same running cost as every other Nigerian business ie NEPA bill, fuel, generator, water, etc.
How can you when you dont have a country?

What value system do you have… tying bedsheets on your head…. Allocating money for traditional rulers your fathers never knew, throwing Owambe, being promiscuous on a game show you were meant to use strategy to win….. or having fraudulent elections?

Dem say restructure North says no
Dem say state police to enhance security North say No
Dem say release political prisoners DSS say no
Dem say show your certificate Candidates say no

Honestly Luggard has phucked all of una

That’s why at embassies una full there looking to JAPA.

When will you Blackies stop fighting to uphold what WHites created for THEIR CHILDREN..

WHat a shame

I think you are a little bit exposed than many of these obidients miscreants constituting nuisance online. Pls Which country among the western nations can take what they are doing in Nigeria? You will see as many of them will begin to respect our nation and our citizens very soon.
Thanks for saying the honest truth even though, your fellow obidients members may scold you unnecessarily.

Bunnatex:
For one irrespective of political, tribal or ethnic sentiments, this is a right step in the right direction.

Especially as it concerns the foreign embassies, It's high time we make them do the right thing here in Nigeria.

As for other owners, I believe the lands were acquired with some clauses, if so they should fulfill their own obligation.

I'm an ardent supporter of PETER OBI, however this is good...

Do you think you can buy a plot and leave it fallow and undeveloped in the center of Washington DC? The authorities there won't permit that for sure. Hence Wike is doing the right thing.
You guys are simply ignorant on how cities, communities or countries evolve. You can't force people to develop a place. Development happens naturally when incentives are available. No one force or threatened anybody for Lagos to develop and continue developing at a rapid rate. If there is first and foremost security, followed by infrastructure and finally economic opportunities, development would come whether you like it or not. How can people rush in to develop Abuja when it is surrounded by Fulani Herdmen, Boko Haram and other terrorist groups. I hear you cannot travel outside Abuja city centre without the fear of being kidnapped. If you think all these gra gra Wike is doing will actually help Abuja develop, then you are highly mistaken. Mallam El Rufai did something similar, he huffed and puffed, be threatened embassies, he revoked and reallocated thousands of plots (mostly to his cronies), what happened? Did that lead to people rushing to develop Abuja?

Abuja started dying socially and economically more than 10 years ago. Even most politicians leave Abuja on weekends and public holidays for Lagos and other socially and economically viable state capitals.
What's is the Ministry of Abuja doing to improve the security of Abuja? What are they doing in terms of incentives to improve the socio economical life of Abuja. All the minister of Abuja both past and present knows is allocation and revocation of lands, that's apart from demolition of peoples houses.
Maybe Abuja truly needs a governor that will have a stake in actually developing Abuja.

Revoking Embassies right to properties and sending them back to their country thereby making businesses and travel policies hard is a good thing? And you have the bragging rights to say Nigerian passport is worthless!
You see this two faced life you are living, Make i no say anything. Una go say another thing, go for back go say another thing, and you term yourself a human being.

How can u send back some one that isn't present.....lands have been allocated to them....but they're yet to develop the land.......this gives them an ultimatum to start building........ basically still investing...I don't think it's a bad idea....unless there's more to it than meets the eye....Naija way

This your slavery mentality will destroy you.
Those same countries will kick you out if you don't comply with their standards in their own countries, was it not small Ghana that kicked us out of our embassy in GH some years ago.
You want to be respected in their country but you can't even respect yourself in your country.
I pains me when Nigerian talk the way you talk.
So it's okay for them not to follow our rules here in our capital.

It's a bad idea. You can't force people to develop lands they bought legally with their own money. Its not even legal. You are not in their pockets. A sane government should provide incentives like loans, mortgages, grants, etc, to developers, if they are desperate for rapid development of a place. Dubai did not force developers and foreign investors to develop Dubai within 30 years.

You carry a Nigeria passport and your are talking about low esteem. Nigeria has one of the lowest if not the lowest esteem in the world right now. Ghanaian and Benin Republic passport has more esteem than nigerian passport. My wife's friend spent lots of money and effort to get a Benin Republic passport last year, because Benin republic passport has far more esteem than Nigeria passport.

If you can give 3 months grace to foreigners, isn’t it stupid to deny your own people of the same or much more privilege?

The Laws of the FCT prohibits leaving land undeveloped for specific period after purchase. Laws are meant to be obeyed/implemented. Wike didn't enact those Laws I guess.

So what happens if no one develops the land? Will the FCT develop it? Will the FCT refund the money paid to purchase the land before reallocating it to another person?

Such laws should be challenged in court only if Judgements can be won and executed against governments in the Nigerian judicial system.

It's like a Law mandating a groom to consumate the marriage after paying the bride price else the bride will be forfeited back to the parents.

Now, the question I want to ask is, who allocated those to the embassies?
Am sure they won't just get land allocation any how without the government's approval.
Am pretty sure some of these cases would end up in court.
Wike is forming busy body. Am sure there're countless projects in Abj other than trying to revoke lands up and down and looking for properties to destroy because it's still the same government that sold these lands

Hmm. Wike should take it easy o. He is moving with the speed of a bulldozer. Any small miscalculation could have far-reaching consequences. He needs to soft-pedal. The idea that to be a performing FCT Minister is to pull down structures and revoke occupancies all over the place is not good. You mix carrot and stick. People are going through stuff, big and small. I saw motorcycles being destroyed. Not okay. PBAT should call the Rivers guy to order!
..with what wike is doing he is increasing the rate of unemployment in FCT Abuja.. because when he destroys or stop people bussinesses he will render the workers they jobless....wike should cool down and
Re: Wike Revokes 22 Allocations, Gives 3-month Grace To 21 Embassies, 168 Others by ufotunang: 5:35am On Sep 25, 2023

The land had been allocated to these embassies for over 20 years. Most embassies have refused to move to Abuja due to security and infrastructural concerns. Ordinary Abuja airport has been a mess.

The embassies had been threatened many times since the days of Obasanjo to move their operations. Some embassies opened Council office in Abuja mostly in rented houses, but still maintain their main office in Lagos.

As I said this should be a diplomatic issue and not a gra gra issue like Wike is doing. Its just not feasible for foreign governments to start building their Abuja office under 3 months because of Wike"s threats. Besides, I dont think its diplomatically possible to just revoke lands already allocated to a foreign government for their embassy.

They didn't buy the land it was alloted to them and they have failed to develop the land.
There are several Nigerians who would do well with same land.

Those given 3 months grace period only need to brace up and start their building projects.

They can as well sell to those who with financial capacity, willing to buy and ready to start building. At least the properties must have appreciated in value.

Civil Engineers, Construction Companies, Contractors, Building Material's Sellers, Site Engineers, Labourers and so on will benefit from this move.

God Bless Nigeria.
It can't be sold or transferred, they didn't buy the land it was given to them our of grace and goodwill of government.
