Who is approving the building these houses? They all need to be questioned and jailed.

[ericdave]

They are quick to destroy but lazy to build. This is just sad. I will follow up with this news.

[TheresiaNchendia]

When i was building my house neighbours advice me to increase the size as they did i refused . After 10 uears they mark their homes . Two uears later their homes were demolished.

[biosah]

Who issued the building permits? Where was the Department of Building & Safety when the structures were going up?

TOKUNBO WAHAB might just be the most hated man in LAGOS state. Keep up the good work sir

[abioduna.]

Nigeria government, especially those in Lagos, they take great delight in marking buildings and demolishing them. Why?
If indeed this was about the canals, we saw the commissioner in front of a blocked canal. Have they cleared that first before going on to demolish built structures? A number of these people have their government-issued documents. Even if you have genuine papers, they will still demolish. Did you provide temporary accommodations for these people before rendering them shelterless?

[onomeonota]

Why should the plan of the waterways be a secret document. The Lagos State Government as well as all state governments should make these documents easy to access. It should be on the state government website. Then I won’t spare an iota of sympathy for law breakers whose properties are demolished. I felt pity for the residents.

[Smith]

It is pain and trauma to demolish someone house 😢😢😢😢

[meksrich]

The Media houses in Lagos are not doing their job professionally. Why are they not asking the government officials the right questions. Can you raise a building foundation without approval? Not to talk of a complete structure in Lagos. Why is it that the government officials that allowed the commencement of these buildings have not been questioned or prosecuted. Were those lands purchased without approval?

Media, ask questions to help the masses even if the government is bent on increasing the hardship for the people.

[akindeleakinbayo]

Ppl should stop erecting buildings without approval.

[ashestoashes]

The fear of water ways is the beginning of wisdom in Lagos state! Some people will even buy land in the water.😅

[GgaskiaAta]

We wanted to buy some plots of land a few years ago. The architect advised us..."don't buy anything around here, this area is NNPC pipeline, that side is federal land, he guided us to an area further from the original place, where we finally bought land. We have been there now for over ten years, nobody came to us once...We have to tell ourselves the truth...

[bolakazim]

Igbos now will start talking rubbish that they are demolishing igos building like say they are d only people built house in lagos

[ifeolu]

The height of wickedness, this is not about drainage. Those who own those properties received original approvals from Lagos Government. Dual standards

[christopheradodo]

Was there any C.Of O., for these properties? And if so, who granted them permission to build their houses along the canals?
Because the land speculators usually inform the land buyers that all is well, but it is the duty of the land owners to investigate if their parcel of land conforms with the Lagos State Government regulations.
It is a common practice in the developed countries. Never bribe people to secure illegal access.

[natyak]

The owners of the properties should seek full redress from the authorities that issued the Cof O in the first place. That is real justice!

[joye]

Like they say in Benin City “money miss road”, what sane human being builds on a drainage or canal. No sympathy for anyone who is, part of the problem in Nigeria.

[backinhistory]

This is the same way Nigeria fights insecurity; the leaders wait until it occurs. A responsible government will not wait until buildings are erected on the right of way before they take action. In other climes, Lagos State Government would be paying trillions in damages.

[GgaskiaAta]

It is very important to follow building and environment laws when buying or building. Most of those houses are literally sitting on the water. We need to tell our selves the truth...

[davedon]

Who approved the building of these structures? Nigerians must learn that development comes with responsibilities! There must be a process. The attitude of disregard for laws must stop. 🛑 I wish Nigeria good luck!
