The Federal Government College Kano Old Students Association (FGCKOSA) has filed a lawsuit at the Federal High Court in Abuja, seeking to stop what it described as the unlawful conversion of land belonging to Federal Government College (FGC) Kano into a private estate.
The development was contained in a statement on Sunday and signed by Aminu Haruna Maipampo, the National Publicity Secretary of the association.
According to the statement, the case has been assigned to Justice Inyang Ekwo, with the first hearing scheduled for 8 July 2026.
FGCKOSA said the suit challenges a proposed Public-Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement involving the Federal Ministry of Education, the Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, Pluck Global Company Limited, the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC), and the Attorney-General of the Federation.
The association explained that the attorney-general was joined in the suit because of his constitutional role as the chief law officer responsible for ensuring that government actions comply with the law.
FGCKOSA said the core issue before the court is whether land belonging to a federal government school can be converted into private property and handed over to a developer under a concession agreement.
“The future of Federal Government College Kano cannot be decided in secrecy or through a private commercial arrangement that converts school land into a private estate,” the statement said.
The association noted that it had previously written to the Ministry of Education and the ICRC requesting details of the agreement but received no full disclosure of documents, approvals,
