In 2009, they revoked it and reallocated it to another company again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy next week, our legal team and external solicitors have arranged to defend FCTA on our land matters, what happens here is that even the leader of the secretariat will tell you to sue; they will sue without defending it, they won\u2019t go to court. It\u2019s business, it\u2019s racketeering, and you will see judgments against FCT.
