 Military judge suppresses Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s FBI confession in 9/11 case A military judge has excluded a confession that alleged Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave to FBI agents nearly 20 years ago, ruling that the statements were not made voluntarily. The decision is a setback for the U.S. government's long-running effort to prosecute Mohammed, who is accused of helping develop the plot to hijack planes and crash them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Mohammed remains detained at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, alongside other defendants awaiting trial. Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, the judge overseeing the case, scheduled a June 2028 trial for Mohammed and three other defendants earlier this week. In an order issued Friday that has not been made public, Schrama barred prosecutors from using statements Mohammed made during four days of FBI questioning at Guantanamo in January 2007.

Wike orders Abuja land owners with C of O to pay recertification fee

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on Friday, directed existing landowners with Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) to pay for re-certification.
 
Wike, who spoke on a live television programme in Abuja, said the new C of O would require a National Identification Number (NIN) and Bank Verification Number (BVN).

He said since assumption of office, he decided not to sign any C-of-O because of the need to introduce enhanced security measures.

The Minister said an individual would pay N50,000 while a corporate body would pay N100,000 for the new C of O.

Wike said, “There are a lot of discrepancies, a lot of cloning of C-of-Os, so we have come up with an idea that every allottee who seeks and applies for a C-of-O must supply his NIN; this is one of the features we are going to put in the new C-of-O.

“If a corporate body doesn’t have an NIN and they have a property, they must put their BVN. So many persons have not registered, and this will make them go and re-register.”

He said existing landlords with C-of-Os would only be required to pay a nominal fee for recertification.

He said, “For everyone who has a C-of-O, they will come for a recertification, so that we can incorporate the NIN or BVN.

“Those who had a C-of-O before don’t need to pay money again; the highest they can pay is N50,000, and corporate bodies will pay N100,000. It helps in terms of security; it also helps to improve our revenue generation.”

Wike also hinted that the cost of obtaining new C of O, which was initially fixed for N5m might be reduced to N3.5 million.
