The Nyesom Wike-led Federal Capital Territory Administration has sealed off the headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Wuse area of Abuja.
The building was sealed off at about 2:05pm on Monday.
Officials of the FCTA had arrived at the place and asked the security guard to meet with those in charge.
The enforcement action is part of an intensified campaign targeting property owners who have defaulted on their statutory financial obligations to the FCTA. Officials say the crackdown is aimed at restoring compliance with land tenure regulations and improving revenue generation.
This move follows the recent revocation of 4,794 land titles across key districts such as Wuse, Maitama, Asokoro, and Garki. Authorities disclosed that a total of 8,375 property owners owe the FCTA approximately ₦6.97 billion in unpaid ground rent—some of which date back over four decades.
Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike, had reiterated the administration’s resolve to enforce compliance, citing Section 28(5) of the Land Use Act, which empowers the government to revoke land titles when occupancy terms are violated.
“We will no longer tolerate individuals or organizations who fail to meet their obligations while occupying premium land in the FCT,” Wike stated, emphasizing that further enforcement actions will continue until all arrears are settled.
