Nyesom Wike, the newly sworn-in minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, on Monday assumed office, and vowed to restore the city’s master plan.
Wike, who is the immediate past governor of Rivers State, assumed official duties as the FCT Minister with the minister of state, Mariya Mahmud.
Both of them arrived at FCTA at about 1:20 pm after the swearing-in ceremony at the presidential villa to hold their first press conference.
At the maiden news conference, Wike said land allottees who have been given Certificates of Occupancy but failed to develop would also lose their lands to give way to those ready to build.
“If you know you have built where you are not supposed to build, it will go down”, he said.
