Abuja Developer Slams Wike’s Land Reforms, Warns of Mass Dispossession Scheme

Prominent Abuja real estate developer Alhaji Shehu Nuhu has raised alarm over the FCTA's controversial new land policies, describing them as a "smokescreen for cronyism" that threatens the Abuja Master Plan and could displace thousands of legitimate landholders.
