Residents of Police Housing Estate in Kurudu area of the nation’s capital have sent a ‘Save Our Soul’ appeal to FCT Minister and the Inspector General of Police over alleged insensitivity of the Developer.
The Developer, Due Don, insisted that there is no basis for the protest.
In the last five years, there has been no love lost between the Developer of this Estate and the residents.

The disagreements have led both parties in and out of the court.
The residents accuse the Developer of high charges, lack of infrastructure and acts capable of threatening their security.
They also disagreed with the placement of a school beside what they call a Night Club
Responding to the allegations, the Developer, through one of the Contractors and a home owner in the Estate, said there is no basis for the protest.
They argued that the recreational centre the residents refer to as a Night Club, will in no way disturb the school as all the demands of the residents have been met.
The Developer, through a Public Private Partnership, was expected to have developed the 45 hectares of land in three years from 2010.
But it attributed the delay in completion of the Estate to the alleged encroachment of settlers in 13 of the hectares, which has also been a subject of litigation.
With a consent judgement, the Developer says it awaits the evacuation of the illegal occupiers of the 13 hectares to complete its contract and hand over the Estate to the Residents.
