Building collapse: FCTA to demolish illegal structures

FCT

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) administration has moved to demolish illegally constructed public buildings as precautionary measures to mitigate building collapse.

This came to the fore as the Development Control Department of the Abuja Metropolitan Management Council (AMMC) has upped plans to demolish abandoned uncompleted one storey building located within Nile Street, in the Maitama District of the nation’s capital city, for purportedly failing integrity test.

The Director, Development Control Department, Murktar Galadima, while conducting top management team on inspection and enforcement exercise around the Federal Capital City (FCC),Tuesday said there is no remedial measure that can be taken by anyone to safeguard the abandoned building, resulting in the decision to remove the structure within a week’s time, in order to avert looming disasters.
