The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has ordered the immediate closure of the Secretariat of the dissolved Ad hoc Committee on Sales of Federal Government Houses in the FCT.
The directive was contained in a statement issued on Wednesday by the Minister’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka.
Wike also approved the creation of a dedicated division within the Department of Land Administration to handle all matters relating to the sale of Federal Government Houses in the FCT.

The new division will take over responsibilities previously handled by the dissolved Ad hoc Committee on Sales of Federal Government Houses.
According to the statement, the Secretariat had remained operational after the committee completed its assignments to attend to issues arising from its activities.
With the formal closure of the Secretariat, members of the public have been directed to henceforth approach the Department of Land Administration for all matters concerning the sale of Federal Government Houses in the FCT.
The FCT Administration also warned members of the public against fraudsters who may attempt to exploit the transition by posing as officials or members of the dissolved committee and its former Secretariat.
“Members of the public are also urged to be mindful of the antics and activities of fraudsters who parade themselves as staff, officers and members of the defunct Ad hoc Committee/Secretariat on SFGH, as the Committee and Secretariat no longer exist,” the statement said.
