The Demolition of a multi million naira duplex in Cotonou Crescent , Wuse Zone six , Abuja has left the alleged owners of the property to question the motive of Department of Development Control .
They are calling on the Federal Government to come to their aid and address the issue.
Maintaining the Abuja Master plan remains a priority of the Federal Capital Territory Administration and has led to demolition of structures deemed to violate its policy.
Properties worth billions of naira have been demolished over the years within both highbrow and low deny areas of Nation ‘s capital city.
It makes construction a very thorough business in the FCT as all necessary papers must be complete and verified so as not to fall foul of Department of Development Control.
On 28th August 2023 the DDC, the Department Development Control demolished a fully completed multi million naira duplex located at Cotonou Crescent , Wuse zone 6 .
