Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31242, member: 636"] FCT Minister Wike is upset about empty land at Abuja University. On Friday, he checked roads near the EFCC school and noticed how much space sits unused. The school grabbed over 10,000 hectares but built very little there. Wike asked reporters why any school needs that much empty space. He thinks holding big chunks of dirt makes no sense if nothing happens to them. Many schools across Nigeria work just fine with smaller pieces of land because they focus on buildings instead of size. Big empty fields help nobody learn anything. The minister believes great schools need classrooms and labs, not endless grass and trees. He plans to take back any land left sitting empty. The government wants places where things happen, not just fenced-off emptiness that blocks new projects. Anyone keeping land must build something useful or lose it fast. This rule applies to everyone, even the police, who also left their nearby land untouched. Wike hopes new roads might push landowners to start building. When he looked at other building sites around town, he smiled at what he saw. The Chinese company making the 15-kilometer highway toward Wassa impressed him with good work. The FCT team wants everything ready before President Tinubu celebrates two years running Nigeria. All projects must finish on time, and no delays are allowed. The president hates seeing half-done jobs sitting around forever. Every contract signed means something real must appear for regular people to use. Wike promised builders the government would stand behind them all the way. He feels happy about progress everywhere except those unused university grounds. The message seems clear - either build something useful or watch your land go to someone who will. Good schools need good buildings, not just paper showing they control massive space. The days of keeping land without using it appear numbered under the current leadership in Abuja. [/QUOTE]
