I support every attempt to sanitize the layout and town planning laws in Ibadan but the 7-day notice is unrealistic. How many people will become homeless as a result of the demolition? I think the people need a longer notice to relocate. |

Pukkah: Did these same people you are pitying consider the possible consequence of building on drainage and other illegal land ? Abeg they should be ejected asap ! |

~Bluetooth: I'm not saying they should spare the houses. But you need to consider the backlash of making thousands of people homeless in one fell swoop within a week. It could have unimagined social, economic and psychological consequences for the people and[b] for the government.[/b] Moreso, it is true they flouted building regulations but the government[b]s[/b] of the day also looked on which has made them accessories to the crime. Isn't it? Ibadan has become too unwieldy and unplanned to be left as it is but we must consider that the people involved are human beings. Let me wager a bet with you - that demolition will not happen in one week.  |

chillbabe: Did government tell them originally that it is illegal to build there?. That's why we have city ordinances but for sure Ibadan has not issued any ordinance before concerning illegal structures. |

Erecting a goal post after the match is over! Olodo Governor! 500feet from all river beds?!!! Hahaha! Half of Ibadan will be razed. Pure foolishness. |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by Pukkah: 3:16pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
moremi2008: What do you suggest that the Governor should do in this case? |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by Kx: 3:18pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
Yet they have Ministry of Town,Urban and Regional Planning. where were they when these structures being being built over the years? |

Thought it was caused by them opening Eleyele dam? |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by Princek12(m): 3:33pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
Kx: Seriously, they have such a ministry? What do they do? |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by moremi2008(m): 4:02pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
Pukkah: Ajimobi appears to be looking for easy scapegoats to deflect the blame from poor governance. A governor with common sense would have first tried to unclog all refuse-filled drains and then investigated who gave instructions to open the Eleyele dam. The illegal structures along the river banks did not appear overnight. They were built over several years and the so-called Ministry of Urban and Regional Planning did absolutely NOTHING to stop it. Besides, I doubt that those structures, most of them probably flimsy, had anything to do with the flooding. The governor is just looking for scapegoats instead of fixing the rotting governmental institutions. |

His Excellency, i hope you do as you have spoken. Ibadan is a mess when it comes to planning houses. Most of the houses in high brow areas like Bodija, Eleyele, Oluyole and the other areas are built on the road. I doubt the Governor can talk the talk and walk the walk because he would have to demolish half of the houses in Ibadan and trust the Ibadan they will impeach him like a flash of light. |

i saw the so called governor ajimobi on tv wearing a purple shirt and a baseball cap. He did not even tuck his shirt in. He looked like a motor park tout. Somebody needs to educate our leaders on their mode of dressing |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by tjskii(f): 8:57pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
^^^i totally agree with you,did you see the president's mode of dressing when he went to the UN headquarters after the bombing? Guy i weak, the dude just resemble bricklayer  |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by aloyemeka2: 11:17pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
tjskii: Is bricklayer not a human being? |

| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by tjskii(f): 6:52pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
aloy-emeka: but of course a bricklayer is a human being, i do not however expect the president to be dressed as one,especially after such a crisis, i need him to look like he can handle the situation at hand, even if he can't talk the talk, let him look the look |
| Re: Ibadan Flood: Houses To Be Demolished In 7 Days - Gov. Ajimobi by aloyemeka2: 10:25pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
tjskii: Should he dress like a soldier in order to convince you that he is capable or incapable of handling the situation?. Dressing has nothing on the ability/capability of any human being. |
