Validated:
Who approved the building plan?
How much was paid to LASG for the approval?
Why is Tinubu's Bourdillon house, which clearly contravened the original Ikoyi masterplan not yet marked for demolition?

chopnaira:

All these explanation should be left for the court room not Nairaland 🤣

DaTruths:
Why would LSG wait for such massive structures to be completed before swooping in to demolish it?

It would take nothing less than 6 months on average for such projects to be completed, and they didn't come there to mark it ❌ as to stop work?

Wetin concern me.

Chii, I am sure no any Igbo man we come out to Bragg that Lagos is no mans land with this lesson sowoolu have being teaching them.

Building on sandfilled swamps is not wise at all.
You can't just be blocking water ways in a coastal city like Lagos unless you want to submerge the whole city.

Its not as if land has finished in Nigeria

Say Lagos go lose value?

It is obvious that a lot of people supporting LASG on this matter have never bought land in Lagos. Most lands bought in Lagos are purchased from Omo oniles or developers. Govt does not sell land to anyone.
It is after you buy land and get your deed of ownership or right of ownership that you reach out to the govt land ministry for CofO or building approval. In the Old Oyo state, what late Bola Ige did was that any new area had masterplans which were easily obtainable from the town planning agency or the LG offices.
So before you purchase land, you go to the LG or town planning to obtain the masterplan at little cost. There's nothing like that in Lagos.
If all those zombies supporting the govt have any sense, they should put pressure on LASG to have a website where all the masterplan for Lagos is uploaded so people can have access to it and will only require the services of a surveyor to interpret it for them.
All this one that after people finish building someone will come and say the place is marked for drainage is just wickedness. I watched the video and i did not see any built drainage. If it is planned, how come such info is not available until almost 50 units of houses are already built?
There is huge corruption in Lagos land usage and allocation. It needs to be swept clean instead of blaming the victims or turning it to a tribal matter.

Mandate1:
you people will just open ur mouth to talk. How many constitutions do we have in this country? Let the constitution of Nigeria be amended to prevent non indigenes from acquiring land then.

That Tinubu is president today doesn't mean power will remain with Yorubas forever. It's transient and must be administered with caution. Every Nigerian whose grandmother or father is a Nigerian has the fundamental right to own and acquire properties legitimately in any part of Nigeria.

Tinubu is not the first Yoruba man to lead Nigeria. I'm perturbed at this level of hate being spread over the media, and the govt is not doing anything to curb it.

The video above was shared by the Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, to showing the level of encroachment of waterways and canals by real Estate developers in Lagos.

He wrote on social media,

"A drone footage of the encroachment of the drainage channel on System 156 (fully built) Igbo-Efon to Ikota channel in Lekki. Red arrow indicator showing the extent of encroachment and total blockade and diversion of system 156 Into system 157 by the developers and property owners. All the structures were fully built on the setbacks and alignment which is clearly an alteration of the Drainage Master Plan along the area.

"We have served several contravention notices and enforcement will begin after the expiration of the contravention notices."

DREAMHOMES6970:


If actually they didn't get a government approval before building in those areas then the government should take their action but @ the bolded major elite areas in Lagos like ikoyi , banana island, eko Atlantic city, Lekki are all sandfilled. I witnessed the large land mass that was sandfilled before eko Atlantic city was created. Where did all those water go

happney65:

Investors are not stupid and would hire a good lawyer to ensure the laws and regulations are completely followed.

You can now see how stupid you sound with the gibberish you typed.

The dude who built a 25 storey the collapsed is not an investor right?
