Shehu further revealed that the Foundation encountered difficulties with the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) due to what he described as an unusually high certificate of occupancy fee, which was significantly greater than what similar organizations were charged.
While the reasons behind the FCTA’s revocation remain unclear, Shehu suggested that it could be an administrative error or possibly a deliberate action.

Moreso, Shehu pointed out that Buhari already owns a personal plot in Abuja, allocated to him before he became Nigeria’s President.
During his time in office, Buhari had turned down an offer for another land plot, requesting that the allocation go to those who were landless.
Shehu urged critics to verify facts before making accusations, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between Buhari’s personal matters and those related to the Foundation. He also warned against involving the former president in unnecessary controversies.
