CAJAAH Estate Residents Stage Protest Over Insecurity

Residents of Orozo Mass Housing Estate otherwise called CAJAAH Estate in Nassarawa State on Saturday protested what they described as the mishandling of the estate’s plan, and exposure to security threats and armed robbery in the estate.

The residents called on the Nasarawa State government, the Traditional council in the State and the Department of state security services (DSS) under the leadership of the Inspector General of Police to please rescue the residents of the masses of the Orozo Mass Housing in the Estate.

In an interview with journalists on the sidelines of the protest, the Chairman of CAJAAH Housing Estate Landlords Association, Mr. Mathias Amuta, said our lives are under the threat and they should please help them.

He said, “We are tired of this harassment, intimidation, the extortion by the director of CAJAAH limited, please save us from these people, a situation whereby we are at work, our Families are not safe, we say enough of this.”

Chairman, who was represented by Barrister Tom Egbele, said what prompted this peaceful demonstration this Afternoon because of the recent attack on the estate, explaining that in early 2022, Emir of New Karshi, Muhammad Bako III. took over Cajaah Nigeria Ltd. But, Before his (Emir) takeover, we made a series of attempts to see him in 2020, asking him for his intervention concerning the crisis amongst directors in CAJAAH Nigeria Limited, but he refused to grant our request.
