“It is possible to take the road to a fresh route if the cost of compensation is too much. Only four kilometres, we have paid N595 million as compensation and we are not prepared to do that again,” Nigeria IllegalStructure CalabarItuHighway
The Federal Government has expressed displeasure over the attitude of members of some communities living along the Calabar-Itu highway, erecting illegal structures with intention to get compensation.
According to him, the Federal Government will not pay compensation on any structure that was not there before valuation. He appealed to the Village Head of Mbak Oku Itam, Chief Robert Udoh, to call his people to order to desist from building illegal structures under the high tension cables with the hope of getting compensation.
“Some people have come here to erect tombstone for people that did not die. Some, their fathers and mothers are alive but they have erected their tombstones in respect of living people. “It is possible to take the road to a fresh route, if the cost of compensation is too much. Only four kilometres, we have paid N595 million as compensation and we are not prepared to do that again,” Enang said.
