Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has pledged that his administration will not dispossess any citizen of their property without providing fair and adequate compensation. This commitment was made following the distribution of cheques to households affected by developments along a 15-kilometre Ring Road corridor from Danbushiya Junction to Danhono 2, located at the Millennium City.

This statement was reported by Vanguard.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that ExxonMobil can proceed with a lawsuit against Cuban state-owned companies in American courts regarding property seized after Fidel Castro's rise to power. This 6-3 decision marks the second ruling in favor of U.S. property owners affected by the Cuban government's confiscations over 65 years ago, potentially providing leverage for the Trump administration to apply pressure on Cuba.

Individuals holding Letters of Administration (LOA) issued before May 31, 2022, are advised that their legal authority over property may soon expire. It is important for these individuals to take necessary actions to ensure their rights are maintained, as the expiration date approaches.
