The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has said that some fraudulent people have taken over land and property acquisitions in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The Chairman of the commission, Mr. Ibrahim Lamorde made the revelation in Abuja recently during a courtesy visit to the minister of the FCT, Senator Bala Mohammed. Mr. Lamorde noted that about 270 land scams were reported to the Commission in the last three years.
He therefore called for an enhanced working relationship between the Commission and the FCT administration in order to curb land scams and other fraudulent practices in the territory.
In his response, the Minister expressed dismay that the FCT is used as a citadel of corruption and promised to cooperate with the commission to stamp out fraud in the territory.
