The Department of Development Control of the FCT Administration has removed some illegal structures erected on plot 661 B01 Gudu District, in Apo area of Abuja, for allegedly deviating from approval granted for the space, thereby contravening Abuja land use act.
It was gahtered that the developer of the demolished property had approval from the department, but did not follow strictly on the approved plan for car park structure in the area.
The enforcement team led by Tpl Chinedu Okoro, the officer in charge of the District, said prior to the removal, the team had visited and served the relevant notices, but the developer failed to comply.
He therefore warned other developers to always adhere to the approval granted them by the department.

Furthermore, he added that the department has resolved that any developer that did not build according to approval, the department will remove the structure and the developer will bear the cost of the removal.
