The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), Tuesday, said despite two months cleanup at Kuje area council, the exercise is not up to 20% completed.
Senior Special Assistant on Monitoring, Inspection and Enforcement to the minister of FCT, Ikharo Attah, stated this at the ongoing cleanup of Pasali, Kuje area council, Abuja.
He said it was discovered that the entire abattoir was converted to residential areas, which he said is unacceptable, and called on all those who built on abattoir corridor to start packing out.
He lamented the level of illegalities in Kuje, which has been going on in the last 2 months.
On compensation to owners of economic trees, he said, “The council chairman has agreed to pay compensation to all those who planted trees here because some of them need to be compensated. We have to pay them compensation.”
He lamented that, “despite all the work we have done in Kuje for over two months we haven’t reached 20% of the cleanup, the cleanup is to take everyone on the road corridor.
“We just discovered that the abattoir has been excessively built upon for now we haven’t been able to reach 20% of the entire illegalities in Kuje. We will be doing it when the rain subsides.
“Some other places where the machines cannot get to, the rain hamper us, we not done with the rail corridor, we are not done with the road side, we are almost done with this one.”
