Natives of Kpaduma 1 and 2 communities at the Asokoro Extension of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, have condemned the demolition of structures in their communities on Monday by officials of the FCT Task Team.
It could be recalled that the FCTA Task Force stormed the communities on Monday, demolishing various structures, which included a popular Guzape Shopping Mall located in Kpaduma 1 community.
Secretary of Kpaduma 1 community, Simon Baba-Yerimah, who described the demolition exercise as inhuman, said that as indigenous people of the FCT, they were not supposed to be treated as refugees on their ancestral land.
He said that the case concerning the land with the FCTA has been in court for the past 12 years and awaiting judgment, saying that it was illegal for the FCT Administration to neglect the case in court by entering the communities to demolish the structures.
