Aw

Ay

Always very reactive and looking for how to extract money from citizens at all costs. They should have a system in place to track which buildings have permits or not. I'm also thinking what measure are in place for staff of the department that issue wrong (unauthorised permits)?
Visiting construction sites to harass people is a very crude way of ensuring compliance.

Some of the inspectors will buy brand new cars in the next few months

Anything to halt and tame illegal building construction/building collapse is a welcome development.

75% of collapsed building under construction got permit from the state government.

its shouldn't be one sided thing. Is a welcome development.

Some people are looking for trouble :S

Why rent when you can lease !

If you know...u know

For myself, I'm just looking at the pictures and admiring the clean construction. I pray I can gather enough money to build these kinds of structures.

Hmm

Guy you wicked oo. Do you now mean intelligence is not required to be a Nigerian president?

Gate security is their talent. That's the only thing fulanis are useful for in Lagos.

Any job that doesn't involve intelligence, that's where you find fulanis.

Lagos State Government, if you are reading this, I want to give you a very valuable advice:-

1.OUTSOURCE THE BUILDING CONTROL AGENCY to proven Private Structural Engineering Firms to handle for you. For instance each LGA can be handled by 3 Firms approved by Government. The workers you have right now in Physical planning and Building control wont be able to fit into the Megacity plan for Lagos state. Imagine how many times that we take drawings there and those guys will condemn drawings done by EXPERTS because they dont understand them. Then the ask us to give them to redesign using their own in house Architects and engineers. They will do shoddy shallow designs that they easily pass since it was done by someone they know.

2. Make Building Approval Process to be completed under 72 hours for large projects and 24hours for small projects like 2 storey downwards.

3. The cost of Approval should be drastically reduce so that every completed building and proposed ones will gladly rush to do it. Can u imagine them charging me N3m to approve a building.

Thsnk you for the insight

The sad thing is that You think they care about your building or they care about revenue generation?? [/They care abt Ur, revenue for d government is one side, y spent millions n d � still collapse. Do Ur soil test, prepare Ur Architecture n structural drawings for vetting, get Ur drawing approved, write to Lasbca b4 commencement of Ur construction, let's d ministry do Ur stage inspection ( from sub structure to super structure, then complete Ur letter of Completion.

Cool

How come whatever they touch manages to crumble? That's the Fulani curse.

Go and check any sector where the fulanis are in charge. That sector must crumble.

They are looking for money.
No developer fears Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development again.

These people are very corrupt

.

When you exploit the corrupt you sign up for a vicious cycle of exploitation. Just do what is right and settle the matter once and for all. Why expose yourself to endless blackmail.

They are foolish. Do they not have record of all planning approvals given with addresses? Like PHCN asking for copy of paid bill when you pay to them. They should have up to date live online record of payment. Likewise for approval since it is computerized and govt has record.
If there is fake approval, it is from their staff

A government that cannot fix common basic roads bt is more interested in chasing people for breaking any law just to extort them.


How about we do operation fix the bad roads

Demolish ke?
They want to generate more IGR.

This is wrong ...they should be the ones arriving houses without permit based on their data. There and then they can now inform those without theirs or can’t find it to produce it...

Probably no records with the govt.

This Apc self they are just solving minor matters while the big one is awaiting, maybe they have exhausted all the money in their fake election, they now taxing individual by all means. What about the fulani Herdmen hideouts have they investigated them.

...Many people will be homeless at this rate...caution must be exercised...

Good, Lagos leading the way to the promised land of Obodo oyibo standards for which Nigerians daily rent the agbada of nationality because they claim they did not have and must have at all cost evident in their willingness to insult even their forefathers...

the shithole must be filled in...

Tinubu things

Just imagine this criminals...they left where they are supposed to check for buildings likely to be defective in places like Victoria island and the likes with old dilapidated buildings instead they opted for banana island so they extort money from the big boys there...glorified government sponsored omonile..
