True Story of what Happened Between FCT Minister, HE. Wike and Lt. Yerima. The incident occurred at Gaduwa before Games Village at about 12:55pm. The land was acquired by VADM AZ GAMBO in 2020 with all the legal documents. In September 2025, the Admiral decided to develop his land and after about a week the Development Control Council came around and asked for the documents and building approval The engineer showed them.
After two days, they came back and stated that the land had been revoked by the current FCT Minister with no conditions provided. Efforts have been made to reach out to him to ask why. But they proffered no concrete or genuine reasons. Then they came to stop the work which prompted us to pursue them. The Minister came around on Saturday and issued enough threats stating that they were coming to bring the building down. Earlier today around 11 AM, two bulldozers from Development Control came to bring the building down but we refused them.
They called Wike and then he sent the FCT Commissioner of Police. Despite all efforts being abortive He came down himself and that’s when we blocked him from the entrance not grant him access to the facility. He had to call the Chief of Defence Staff and reported the matter. The CDS spoke with the officer that they should come down they are on top the situation.
