Unjust Threat to Demolish PAULOSA Life Camp: President Tinibu Should Stop Wike
By Comrade Erhahon
I have just watched the heart-rending video record on alleged move by FCT Minister, Nielsen Wike to demolish the monumental PAULOSA Life Camp in the Federal Capital Territory. The Life Camp situates on a land legally acquired by PAULOSA Nig Limited since 1984 when Mr. Wike was probably still in the elementary School. PAULOSA was one of the earliest construction companies that built the FCT. It is company established by one of the heroes of the Civil War, a legendary patriot of the Benin Kingdom, Lt Col Paul Osakpamwan Ogbebor (Rtd), who died less than four years ago. The Life Camp is one of the busiest communities in the territory with a population of over a thousand.
To tag it as vacant or abandoned is therefore false, vicious and malicious.
As a devoted stalwart of APC in Edo State and one of the numerous beneficiaries of the hospitality of Late Col Paul Ogbebor in the Life Camp, I appeal to President Ahmed Bola Tinibu to protect the monument from Mr. Nielsen Wike, the Minister of The Federal Capital Territory.
APC is a promoter of justice and the Rule of Law, vehemently opposed to brigandage and Land Grabbing.
