The Nigerian Institute of Town Planners (NITP) on Monday strongly condemned the recent harassment and molestation of development control officers in Lugbe, Abuja.
The officers were carrying out their statutory duties when the incident occurred.
The NITP President, Dr Chime Ogbonna, led a delegation to the Department of Development Control at the AMMC headquarters to commiserate with the Director, Tpl Galadima Mukhtar, and the staff of the Department.
Ogbonna emphasised that the Institute will not tolerate such actions without taking recourse, cautioning against future occurrences and assuring that perpetrators will face appropriate actions.
Muktar thanked the Institute for their support and assured that the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) is investigating the matter with utmost attention, ensuring justice is served.
This incident highlights concerns about the safety and well-being of Development Control staff and underscores the need for respect and protection of professionals carrying out their statutory duties.
