It is now an established legal fact that lands and properties belonging to both the government and individuals were either illegally acquired or misappropriated in the past as identified by the Judicial Commission of Inquiry. The commission’s report has been accepted by the government and Gazetted.
In compliance with the above, today I inaugurated the Implementation Committee for the recommendations on the White Paper on Lands and Related Matters, headed by Prof. Ukachukwu Awuzie and charged them with the responsibility of recovering all assets belonging to the State and/or any individual listed in the White Paper. Imo belongs to all of us and not to any individual.
– Hope Uzodimma
