Are you blind or you didn't see Ughelli there?

Structures built on government land.
How can an estate be unplanned? And how can estate make a slum.
An Ibadan native calling Asaba a slum. Wonders never end.

jmoore:

Go back to nursery school.

Cyberterror:
Asaba is becoming a slum with unplanned estates everywhere. The state government should go ahead and sanitize the town just as Sanwo-Olu is sanitizing Lagos. Though the usual suspects will not wail because Delta is PDP state.

Edo State Government is targeting Igbos

You open mouth waa!! Read, you no go read.

The demolition is for structures illegally built on lands owned by Delta state government.

The delta state government is targeting Igbo properties

agabusta:
There are demolitions for unapproved developments, recovery of private/govt land and to pave way for public infrastructure like roads, bridges, airports, railways, etc for the greater benefit of the public.

I've not seen that major infrastructural development of govt that does not involve takeover and compensation of people's properties. Even the FCT itself was done on people's ancestral land.

People should dig the history of big roads and some airports we are enjoying today and will discover someone or a family suffered some form of loss for it in the past.

Compulsory acquisition of land by the government for public use or for overriding public interest is well covered by the Land Use Act.

Yesterday, musa camp was demolished. Today would be the turn of 74 junction. People were packing properties overnight. I felt pity for them. The worse of all would be happening to a man call Baba Niel. He built his house years ago,and last month he completed his hotel. All would be demolished, His wife has been crying. Everyone in 74 junction has been moody as if someone died. Hausa boys have been lurking around to scavenge irons. May God give them all the fortitude to bear their loss.

Why are all this state government targeting we Igbos!

Is it because we voted Peter obi in delta state or you are just jealous of us?

Coldspice:


Delta State Governor hates we Igbos. This is not fair after all the development we Igbos brought to Delta.
Igbos own 99% of the developed areas of the entire Delta state.

I am yet to read any one ask " where was the government when the buildings were being built"?

Okay. That question is specially made for Lagos.

Typical!

caracas:

Yes , your posit might be correct to some extent, but why make it selective in Lagos? Why have they not gone to demolish houses n structures in agege, Lagos island , obalende, munshin, surulere ikotun n environs … These are yoruba dominated or evenly spread areas ,but various governments act like this slums do not exist. Instead they go to Igbo dominated areas like lekki, festac okoko etc to demolish.
The isolo- jakande -ikotun road has been in a very sorry state n in dire need of expansion, but the government has refused to do the needful cos of the synagogue church of nations.Same government that wasted no time in destroying a monumental landmark like the landmark center.
Why has the so called " overriding public interest theory " not applied with the synagogue church?
We know exactly what the government in Lagos n Abuja is doing, they chose to apply the law to victimize its enemies n ignore same laws to Favour their friends…..
