FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has approved the cancellation of 485 land documents in Abuja after they failed authenticity checks.
The affected titles were nullified following a joint review by the Department of Land Administration and the Abuja Geographic Information Systems, which found that many of the documents were fake and did not meet verification standards.
In a public notice tagged Batch I, the Federal Capital Territory Administration confirmed that the invalid applications had been removed from the regularisation database.
The cancelled documents cut across several Area Councils, including Bwari, Abuja Municipal and Kuje, with locations such as Ushafa, Dawaki, Kurudu, Jikwoyi, Nyanya, Sabon Lugbe and Kuchiyako One layout affected.
Authorities said the move is part of ongoing land reforms aimed at sanitising the system, tackling forgery, double allocations and irregular grants.
Under the law, all land in the FCT belongs to the Federal Government, and valid titles must be processed and formalised through the office of the FCT Minister.
