Members of the OneAgape Foundation yesterday staged a peaceful protest in Kaduna against the demolition of their property located in the Babban Saura community in Chikun Local Government Area of the State.
The group is calling on Governor Uba Sani to intervene and ensure that justice is served.
The protesters carried placards with various messages, asserting that the land in question was legally acquired and that all necessary documents were obtained before construction began.
During the protest, the Project Manager, Pedro Obhafuoso, explained that the demolished property was intended for a football academy, a solar energy training center, and a skills acquisition hub aimed at empowering youths in Kaduna and beyond.
Obhafuoso stated that the foundation secured the land with legitimate documents and received all required approvals from the Kaduna State Urban Planning and Development Agency (KASUPDA).
“We acquired this land legally and obtained all the necessary permits before commencing development. Everything was properly documented. Therefore, we were shocked when armed men arrived and demolished the property without any prior notice,” he said.
