GOV. UZODIMMA WARNS AGAINST LAND GRABBING IN THE STATE; INSISTS ON DUE PROCESS

His Excellency, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma during the Sunday Service at the Government House Chapel, Owerri, addressed the issue of illegal land grabbing in the State as he called for the use of Due Process in acquiring lands and properties.

Governor Uzodimma made it clear that the “Federal Government or any other Federal Agency cannot and will not allocate lands in the State.” He further stated that since his emergence as the Governor, he has not allocated any land to anyone including himself, warned against illegal acquisition of lands without clearing with the Ministry of Lands in the State.

The Governor further disclosed that even the communities have no power to allocate lands and properties to anyone especially those who claim to have MoU with the Communities.

Governor Uzodimma enjoined Imolites to follow due process in acquiring landed properties as Government will come calling for all State owned properties.

Man with doings, issue of land in this country is really sickening.
