I disagree. They may have been misled to buy the land without due diligence... There hundreds of such case of purchased lands with committed acquisition on it. A friend told me how he mistakenly bought one of such lands in Lagos and his 30m disappeared..

Nwa Onoh no dey everly smile, grand son of the former governor of the then Enugu-anambra state. A man who trains and carries python on his G-wagon.

This man was the face behind the demolition of illegal structures in Abuja during El-rufai's regime

Okekenwajideaku:
This Onoh of a man just turned in demolishing Enugu..

Almost all kiosk and shops been demolished with no alternative

Atomass:
Chai this life eh. Those buildings are no where close to the said airport

philip0906:

The problem with your submission is that it is the same government, who gave them permits/permissions to buy lands & build houses there. No one builds houses or erects structures in Nigeria, without getting approval from authorities.

So what you have is basically a case of government eating their cake and having it...Policy summersaults as a result of incompetence & no clear and followed through roadmap

midnighter:


You are not saying the right thing Sir. What kind of useless fellow purposely goes and builds his house where planes want to land, whether anybody gave him "approval" or not?

Its like saying that somebody who commits murder and escapes the charges is not at fault but the law courts are. Its a 2-way thing

philip0906:

Who is supposed to determine where a plane lands or not? Is that the duty of the citizens or those in position of authority?

Plus saying giving approval or not should not make someone build houses where planes land, is an indictment on the government and shows incompetence because a sensible government would not give approval for houses, where planes land.

midnighter:


[s]This is a misplaced priority. Youre focusing on the wrong thing[/s]

Okay, now that the government has failed, are you trying to say that successive officials who may not even have been in office at the time the rubbish "approval" was given should just fold their hands and allow the errant building to stay there?

Wont they correct the mistake?

philip0906:

Atleast we all agree the government has failed.

The next right thing will be to compensate those affected, [s] as far as they were given approval from the government to purchase and/or build houses. [/s]

midnighter:


If its that angle you are coming from, no problem. As far as you are prepared to separate people who innocently built in the wrong area with people who deliberately circumvented building regulations. Can you think of a practicable way of doing that

[s]The way you countered that guy sounded like you were trying to remove accountability from the builder, which doesnt make any sense[/s]

philip0906:
[s]Ofcourse if you circumvent laid down regulations, then you're on your own. In Lagos alone, there are tons of lawsuits against government at the courts over issues of repossession of properties like this, by government. [/s]

philip0906:

You're finally bereft of logical counter argument...Lol

midnighter:


Just giving you what you like.

It's my fault anyway for quoting you. Thought you were sensible enough to disagree with me and explain why in a mature manner.

Dont worry, I wont be making that mistake again. Bye!

philip0906:

I disagreed with you in a sensible manner amd countered all your arguments...alas, you were bereft of any other sensible posit, which you clearly displayed

midnighter:


Lol, I really need to cultivate the habit of checking people's profiles before starting any discussion with them; it would save me some irritations.

You cancel people's posts and insult them whenever you disagree so I actually shouldnt have bothered, seeing as on any normal day, you enjoy acting like an overgrown baby I no blame you at all...youre just a sophisticated troll, nothing more

My bro I tire oo. Funny enough I created a thread about the atrocities being committed by this man. Yet nairaland don't want to push it up. Crime will rise in Enugu with the kind of demolition in urban areas

OEPHIUS:
More

ECTDA under Onoh will soon demolish the entire Enugu, I wonder whether it is what they voted for in the last election. I was around uwani just last week and I noticed the massive demolition of people's shops and kiosks and other attachment to buildings where people do businesses to sustain themselves and I was wondering whether economy of that state which is predominantly a civil service state has so grown to such extent as to warrant such heartless demolitions?
