    Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has returned two parcels of land in Kaduna city to the family of the late Head of State, General Sani Abacha, two years after they were revoked and seized by former governor Nasir El-Rufai.

    The reinstated lands include a property located at No. 9 Abakpa GRA, Kaduna, measuring 2,284 square meters, covered by Kaduna State Certificate of Occupancy No. 30575, and another at No. 1 Degel Road, Ungwan Rimi GRA, Kaduna, measuring 3,705 square meters, with Certificate of Occupancy No. 11458.

    Reuben Atabo (SAN), the Abacha family’s lawyer, revealed to newsmen that the Right of Occupancy (RO) for the properties was revoked in 2022 during the tenure of former Governor Nasir El-Rufai.

    The State government had placed newspaper advert on April 28, 2022, saying, “This is to inform the general public that His Excellency, the governor of Kaduna State has in exercise of the power conferred on him under the land use Act, 1978 revoked Titles to plots of land within Kaduna metropolis for various contraventions of terms and conditions of Right of Occupancy”.

    According to Atabo (SAN), the name of Sani Abacha was number 34 on the published list for the revocation of the land.

    To this end, Atabo had approached the high court of justice of Kaduna State in suit No.KDH/KAD/465/2021 and suit No.KDH/KAD/509/2022 respectively for claim of embarrassment to Abacha family name in the publication, among other claims.

    However, in his wisdom, governor Sani had in two letters dated 10th December, 2024, through Mustapha Haruna, Deed Registrar on behalf of the Director General, Kaduna Geographic Information Service (KADGIS) reinstated the titles of the lands, asking the title holders to pay outstanding fees on ground rent.

    The letters were addressed to Mohammed Sani Abacha, care of R.O Atabo, SAN & Company.
