President Muhammadu Buhari has warned that the Federal government might be forced to re-allocate projects elsewhere if any state government or communities create unnecessary impediments in the allocation of land or access to such lands for federal projects.

Buhari’s warning was contained in a statement signed and forwarded to Benupdate.com by his Media Aide, Garba Shehu, on Saturday.

According to Buhari: “The idea of chasing away contractors on-site or making undue demands from them by local communities or the deliberate actions of State governments to frustrate the allocation of lands for federal projects is an antithesis of the people’s welfare.”

The statement disclosed that, in a recent directive to Ministers, the President requested Ministers in his government to have the states clear all lingering land issues threatening federal projects under their supervision or have such projects moved to willing states where that becomes impossible.

Shot up. Must you oppose everything about Buhari. He has just said it as it should be, few people can not because of greed stop federal project that will benefit all.
It is becoming a curse for lazy Nigerians to stand in the way of development, because they know they can fraudulently blackmail government into paying ransom before infrastructural development can be executed. Gov owned every land and has the right of it before anybody. On this I'm in support, if you can not clear the path of development for the government then as a state governor, your people do not deserve such project simple.

....yes I totally agreed with you on this because it's becoming a major problem to some States in Nigeria in terms of infrastructural development...I heard it's one of the problems crippling the ongoing works on the second Niger bridge for years after the contract has been awarded by GEJs administration
