Wallade:
Ask Lagos State government to show you proof.

Better still challenge the demolition of those properties in court, this will compel Lagos state government to show you the proof in court.

Simple!

Wallade:
To destroy those buildings in Anambra and Abia, was court order not secured by the state government?

Once the court orders the demolition, then it becomes legitimate.

Wallade:
No, sealing the building was not an option. The court ordered demolition.

Simple!

Wallade:
When your property in any state or FCT contravenes the law, it risks demolition.

Don't blame Lagos State government or any government for implementing the law by demolishing unapproved buildings.

Mynd44:
Why didn't Edo, Anambra and Abia state government just seal.

It isn't an option in those states?

Nigerians don't understand consequences.

Mynd44:
They had ample time to comply, they had time to get approvals, I hope you know some developers did. Those don't have 2 heads do they?

Mynd44:
Obviously you want to ignore salient points and argue just because you want to argue.


Tell the develop to go to court. The same court the ruled that the state government has the right on building approval matters in. 2003

Mynd44:
No, this is false.

Under the Nigerian Urban and Regional Planning Act of 1992, only state governments are allowed to issue building approvals whether on FG land or anywhere else. Those building must seek approvals.

Who do we blame when the developers went as far as beating up government agents last year who went to serve notices and inspect the illegality?

Mynd44:
The government gave them time to apply, some complied, others refused.

Heck they even beat up staff of the state government who went to dialogue with them last year.

What else should government do? Keep allowing illegality?

Mynd44:
Senator Umeh is right but also very wrong.

When it comes to federal government estates, and land sold by the FG the FG takes jurisdiction but only on land being developed by the FG.
Example: if the FG is building an army building inside a barracks, it is entirely on the exclusive list and the state has no say but the moment the FG sells the land to a non government party, such person(s) must get approvals from the state to build even after getting FG approvals.

This was the hubris of the builders who assumed that they had no business with the state even when the state asked that they come and apply for permits and get approval

Apcnewrecruit:

Nobody can fix Nigeria. Not even God can fix Nigeria. It's simple

omoadeleye:
You can see that if Peter Obi you have bet your life with becomes the president, screenshot of him criticizing insecurity will be flying around,

IJAYA001:
Is this an insult?

mascot87:
Obedients should be grateful for the kind of democracy we practice in Nigeria where our leaders are open to insults and criticism.

BafanaBafana:
Chi chi chi chi. I mentioned who was president when Boko haram was all time high. And yes Jonathan brought this country to an all time low. He institutionalized corruption, his government looted the country into recession. The kleptocratic system of government, sharing our money among the elites we are witnessing till date was laid down by him.
Your hero is among those that screwed Nigeria. Deal with it.

madridguy:
Typing obident mentality.... No form of a proper engagement than throwing insults around.

Tafa Sego never threatened to unalive anyone. He said APC is their party as NURTW, it is APC that is giving us food, if you know you want to entertain other political party, leave NURTW... He said further, tell that Omo Barca that the rubbish he did then he should not repeat it.

Hello, Oba of Lagos is a ceremonial stool and what you see there is just a decoration.

When you talking about Óbá’s, Oba of Lagos does not fall in the list.

favor914:
Nothing but respect for those young men that have put up their lives to defend us.

No respect for the ones like yourself that sit in a cubicle & whine, this & that about their country, that cannot even add any value to their own existence.

CoronaVirusPro:
In as much as I commend such move by the Great Óbá of Benin, It would have been more appreciated if the Oba can use same authority to ban market women, land owners, transporters extortion.

That will go a long way. Since many governors are too dumb to make the move, the Great Óbá of Benin should lead.

correctyourself:
I think government should be conducting performance evaluation every six months, so that in situation like this somebody performed poorly can be indicated through a central database, denied promotion for one or two years with reason for the denial for future purposes.

favor914:
Are u too young, why u no go joint army, instead of wailing on Nairaland?

If army too strong for u, go join police, so u can help protect us from these bandits.

Abi u no be Nigerian?

madridguy:
Like Obi like his followers...Must you insert Obi into every discussion?

Always looking for cheap attention everywhere. Always putting your Lamba master into everything. Mtchew

madridguy:
Iyaloja general is not appointing Iyaloja of Benin but Iyaloja of Edo State.

Benin people should calm down.
