The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Awka Capital Territory Development Authority, ACTDA, Venerable Amaechi Okwuosa, has warned that the agency will not tolerate people building on waterways, under high tension cables and other illegal locations, which can pose danger to lives and property.
He therefore, warned illegal developers and land speculators to shun such acts or face the full wrath of the law.
Venerable Okwuosa who gave the warnings in Awka, observed that some developers, do not follow proper building processes.
He maintained that if people would adhere to stipulated rules and regulations in erecting structures, cases of building collapse will reduce drastically.
The ACTDA M.D. warned that there is no cutting corners in obtaining building plans in the state as the agency is properly documenting every approval granted since inception in 2014, adding that every approval in disposal of any developer must meet Awka Capital Territory Development Authority basic requirements.
He further warned that any presentation of fake document to the agency by the developer renders the approval void even when it has already been granted.
Venerable Okwuosa made it clear that every approval granted by Awka Capital Territory Development Authority, has a life expectancy of two years, which implies that after two years if the approval is not put into use, it becomes invalid, and called on developers, whose approvals have not been used after two years to revisit Awka Capital Territory Development Authority, for a new approval.
He said that the agency has commenced review of building plan approvals being paraded by some individuals as authentic, disclosing that six plan approvals have already been revoked under the process.
