Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has expressed regret over a land developer in Abuja who he claims mistreated him via text messages after accusing him of being anti-Igbo.
According to Wike, the Federal Capital Territory will enter a new phase and cease to be a favorable place for people looking to pose as land developers in order to deceive the government.
In a recent discussion with a group of journalists, the minister stated that the land developer claimed in the text message—which he deemed offensive—that he had promised to deal with the Igbos.
“You said you want to deal with the Igbos,” he said in his text, according to the minister.
Consider this kind of blackmail
Did he give the Igbo people the land we are discussing? How can you possibly believe that you are too intelligent to inform the public that I will handle the Igbos and that they can sit down and hear such nonsense?
He said that land grabbers pose to the government as developers with dishonest goals.
In his remarks, he emphasized that the litigation against the FCTA had already begun when he took on his role as minister.
