Nigeria: Court to Rule On Demolition of Wayas' House

By John Chuks Azu, 15 February 2013

An Abuja High Court is to determine a motion by former President of the Senate Dr Joseph Wayas challenging the recent demolition of his Abuja home on February 26.

In a motion on notice filed through his counsel Haroun Eze Esq., the Wayas averred that his property Plot 1843 Asokoro Cadastral Zone AO4 was on January 28 demolished by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA).

He is also asking Justice J.Y. Tukur to restrain the FCTA from demarcating and re-allocating the plot because that will "deprive him the permanent ownership of same."
