Lori-Ogbebor Condemns Revocation Of Late Husband’s Property In Abuja


Chief Rita Lori-Ogbebor has condemned the revocation of the ownership of a property in Abuja belonging to her late husband, Col Paul Ogbebor.

Speaking in an interview with Arise TV, she said the estate located in the Life Camp area of the FCT is the property of Paulosa Nigeria Limited, a company owned by Ogbebor, a civil war hero.

Lori-Ogbebor said the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) issued a notice of quit on November 22, and went ahead to reallocate the property on December 9.

She added that her findings at the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) indicated that the estate was reallocated to a company that has a three-time member of the House of Representatives as Director.

Lori-Ogbebor said the Certificate of Ownership was issued three weeks after the notice was issued to the management of the estate.

The elder stateswoman called on President Bola Tinubu to caution the leadership of the FCT ministry. She said: “My husband went to Abuja and worked there.

He wasn’t a land grabber. “My husband was among those whose sweat contributed to building the Abuja we have today. He gave people hope to come to Abuja. “He never collected any land. My husband got his land rightfully like any other Nigerian.

“Paulosa is a company that brought Italians, and Lebanese to work in this country. And they are there to date. They were all given land certificates.”
