President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has intervened in the Federal Capital Territory Administration’s sweeping enforcement action against 4,794 properties revoked for failure to pay ground rent spanning between 10 and 43 years.
The intervention comes as the FCTA began enforcement of revocation orders on Monday.
The affected properties include those owned by government institutions, corporate entities, and individuals, underscoring the FCTA’s commitment to enforcing compliance without discrimination.
In response to President Tinubu’s directive, the owners of the revoked properties have now been given a 14-day grace period to settle their outstanding ground rent payments, including applicable penalties, in order to retain ownership of their assets.
