FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike has ordered individuals who unlawfully constructed buildings at the Abuja Technology Village to move elsewhere or face legal consequences.
The ultimatum was issued on Monday during an inspection of the site in Pyakasa, Abuja.
Wike was accompanied to the site earlier today by the Minister of Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji.
The FCT minister stated that the Federal Government had in 2015 offered a settlement to the unauthorized occupants and instructed them to relocate.
Despite this, he observed that the number of houses continued to increase in the area, necessitating the implementation of strict measures to reinforce the government’s message.
Commenting on the latest development, the Minister of Science and Technology emphasized that the Abuja Technology Village is of great importance as it accommodates emerging technologies that the Federal Government intends to adopt.
He noted that it is crucial to demarcate the area to attract investors and successfully accomplish its objectives.
