Planned demolition of buildings in FCT, declaration of war against the poor – NLC


August 31, 2023

    

The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, on Thursday said that the threat by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, to demolish illegal structures was a declaration of war against the poor.


The NLC said that the reason provided by the government was not tenable, stressing that the master plan is only known to those behind the plan.


President of the NLC, Joe Ajaero, who spoke at the congress national symposium in Abuja said the plan should not go ahead unless there is alternative shelters for the affected poor.describing the plan as a violation of the human rights


Recall that, upon assumption of office, the former Rivers State governor and now the FCT Minister had vowed to demolish all illegal buildings and structures in the Federal capital as part of efforts to restore the Abuja Master Plan


He also threatened to revoke lands that were allocated but not developed as well as reclaiming uncompleted buildings that had become a safe haven for criminals.


Wike vowed not spare anyone, irrespective of status, who had distorted the master plan, encroached the green areas and would also ban motorcycle and tricycle operators, open grazing, roadside markets in the FCT.


But reacting to the threat at the symposium with the theme, “Nigerian Economy and the Crisis of Survival : Robbing the Poor to Pay the Rich”, Ajaero said that the FCT administration should legalise those structures.


He said, “The new attack by Wike to drive the poor out of Abuja, it’s a war where they tell you that you build in a place that is not part of the master plan, the master plan is only known to them.


“The NLC is saying that those structures are not illegal, those structures should be made legal unless there is alternative to them.


There is no area they map out, either quarter plot or half plot for the poor to build in Abuja and when the poor manages to get small shelter, it’s been demolished on daily basis. It is a war against the poor.


“The number of people that Adolf Hitler killed under a gas chambers will be a child play for people that will die because of shock over demolition”, Ajaero added.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the unions
