LAGOS GOVT TO DEMOLISH OVER 100 SHANTIES UNDER ADENIJI ADELE BRIDGE TODAY. (PHOTO).


 Lagos Govt to demolish over 100 shanties under Adeniji Adele bridge today


The Lagos State Government has announced plans to demolish over 100 shanties at Adeniji Adele under bridge, starting from today, May 6, 2024.


This was revealed by the State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. TokunboWahab, in a statement on Sunday.


According to the Commissioner, the removal of the shanties is part of the state government’s efforts to restore sanity and cleanliness to the area.


Recall that the government had urged occupants of the shanties to vacate the area before the demolition exercise begins, to avoid any disruption or loss of property.


“The Lagos State Government will undertake enforcement action to remove over 100 shanties at Adeniji Adele underbridge from tomorrow, Monday, 6th of May, 2024.


“The removal is coming after the expiration of a 48-hour removal notice served on all occupants of the shanties to move with their belongings,” Wahab stated


He said operatives of the Kick Against Indiscipline and officials from the Monitoring Enforcement and Compliance department of the ministry will be given security backup to conduct the operation.


This exercise, according to him, is part of the commitment of the state government to reclaim all ungoverned spaces that dot the Lagos landscape.


“Apart from the unsanitary conditions of residents in the shanties, it also serves as a hiding place for criminals and points for peddling hard drugs and substances which is injurious to the wellbeing of law-abiding residents.


“Therefore, I advise all the occupants of the shanties in their interest, to voluntarily move out with their belongings before the commencement of the enforcement operations on Monday,” he added.


Lagos State’s Ministry of Environment and Water Resources has successfully carried out another enforcement exercise, this time at Adeniji Adele under bridge, following a similar operation last week in Ikoyi.


During the Ikoyi exercise, an apartment where tenants paid an annual rent of N250,000 was discovered under the Dolphin Estate Bridge.


The enforcement team removed all structures, including a container used for illegal activities, from beneath the bridge.


According to Commissioner for Information, GbengaOmotosho, out of the 450 squatters arrested under the bridge, 371 requested relocation to their various states.
