FCT village head suspended over land dispute

The chairman of Abaji Area Council in Nigeria's Federal Capital Territory has suspended the village head of Kache amid an ongoing land dispute.

In a move to address tensions in the community, Alhaji Abubakar Umar Abdullahi, chairman of the Abaji Area Council within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has suspended the village head of Kache. This action stems from a land dispute that has reportedly escalated in the area. The suspension aims to restore order and facilitate resolution of the conflict, though specific details on the dispute's origins remain limited in available reports. Local authorities have not yet provided further statements on the timeline or potential reinstatement. This incident highlights ongoing challenges with land governance in peri-urban areas of the FCT, where traditional leadership often intersects with modern administrative structures.
