Over 6,000 uncompleted buildings in Abuja – FCTA

The Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA, says it is trying its best to curb the rising uncompleted buildings in the nation’s capital.

Director, Department of Development Control of FCTA, Alhaji Muktar Galadima, said on Sunday, that the Abuja city centre has over 6,000 uncompleted buildings.

To curb this menace, Galadima said the FCTA administration has contacted owners of all the uncompleted buildings to out their structures in proper use in line with the city’s master plan.

“Some of them have responded favourably and the department conducted integrity tests on some of the structures, while some others have made efforts to complete the structures.

“This is how far we have gone. As regards the issue of uncompleted buildings, with all sense of modesty, I can speak authoritatively about it.

“I know that we have over 6,000 uncompleted buildings in Abuja and the Federal Capital Territory Administration is making some efforts to stem the tide of rising cases of uncompleted buildings in the territory,” he stated.
