Abuja Land Reform: Senator Bala’s Finest Point, By Ibrahim Biu

FCT Minister, Sen Bala Muhammed

The introduction of the land management outfit in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) by the FCT Minister, Senator Bala Muhammed, to be known as the Accelerated Area Council’s Title Reissuance Scheme  (AACTRIS) has brought the best in the minister’s tenure.
He really deserves commendation from FCT residents and other stakeholders.
The programme will go a long way in addressing problems being encountered by allotees of land from the area councils as well as deal with land issues emanating from the six area councils in the FCT.
Also worthy of commendation is the taking over of the Abuja Geographical Information System (AGIS) from the management of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc.
It will be recalled that Julius Berger Plc took over AGIS in the wake of the Nasiru El-Rufai reforms that swept through the former ministry of the FCT leading to subsequent establishment of secretariat agencies, departments, including the AGIS.
One can see a very bright future for the FCT under Senator Bala Muhammed’s leadership who appears to be a detribalized Nigerian, and ready to offer his best to the nation as a whole.

Biu sent this letter from Abuja.
