Ifo Residents Protest Against Obasanjo by oladayo042: 9:09am On Sep 03, 2010
Residents of Ilepa a community in Ifo Local Government Area of Ogun State, Nigeria, yesterday took to the streets to protest against the demolition of their properties.

The residents, numbering over 10,000, with placards marched from the main entrance of the town to the palace of the traditional ruler, Oba Fatai Oladipupo, the Baale and other community leaders.

P.M.NEWS learned that the people are protesting against the proposed demolision of their properties by the management of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi-Araba, Lagos.

Investigations revealed that the management of LUTH are banking on the fact that a portion of the property was given to them by the President Obasanjo administration for the purpose of building an annex of the hospital

P.M.NEWS gathered that the residents decided to protest when an official of LUTH gave them a verbal ultimatum of 100 days to vacate the property.

Speaking on behalf of the residents, Elder Peter Idowu, the chaiman, Ifesowapo Community Development Association, said that though the management of the hospital has annexed some portion of the property and the ultimatum is a calculated attempt by a group of people to convert the property for personal use, “and we will not watch and allow these people destroy a town made up of over 13 communities including Ilepa, Onhale and others, where do they want us to go? We sense a foul play by OBJ and others.”

Earlier, the Oba of the town advised the residents to maintain peace with a promise to speak with those in authority to assist in resolving the issue.

Also, counsel to the community, Barrister Gbolahan Agoro, said that the issue of the 100-day ultimatum is null and void and of no basis and promised to fight on.

Where there not any agreement with the villagers before that portion of land was given to LUTH? So if there is no agreement, then the governemnt is to be blamed and when such is the case, the leader takes the blame.

If a man is plain and upright, and people know him to be plain and upright, to accuse such a man with theft will be very difficult.

But

"a known THIEF will always be a SUSPECT"

If he is not capable of doing such, he will not be accused.

If a man sleep with his mother, he will say it is devil's work. If father sleep with his daughter, he'll say it is devil's work. If a man kill another man, it's devil's work. Maybe obj is the devil in nigeria, and that is why we always mention his name on bad things. Uh!

That land has been given to LUTh for more than 30 yrs now. If Luth has not conpensented, the protest should go there.
