A stakeholders meeting with Farm owners in Lokotoko Millennium city was convened 7th Oct 2025 with the sole purpose of giving compensation to those whose farmlands were affected by the Qatar Sanabil Project which is a mass housing project by Qatar Charity for the less privileged in Kaduna State.
The first phase of the housing project was already completed earlier this year with beneficiaries mostly people who were affected by banditry and who lost their houses as a result were given possession of the completed houses.
DG KADGIS Dr Bashir Garba Ibrahim gave assurance to the farmers that no one will be left out in the compensation process as such ordered for a new assessment to be carried out to identify the genuine owners of farmlands that were affected with a firm promise of completing this process in no time .
He also called on them to be cooperative as all their grievances will be addressed and the loss incurred over their uncultivated crops will be compensated as well.
The DG promised that other areas in Lokotoko whose farmlands were also affected by other projects will be compensated once the issue of Qatar Sanabil Housing project has been cleared .
