PropertiesRe: Military Officers Seize Onikoyi's Land At Banana Island (Pictures) by DaSilvaFemi(op): 2:19pm On Aug 07, 2015
I have read a lot of the comments on my post and I worry about the psyche of some I am posting a copy of the court injunction published in the Guardian and Punch of Monday. Clearly these people involved have no respect for the rule of law.

In a democracy should the Military be more powerful than the Judiciary. These thugs in Uniform led by one General Muhammed also popularly referred to as 'Evil Spirit' is better off putting his bullying expertise at Sambisa forest. If anybody has time to visit this place - Onikoyi off Banana Island road you will see the officers there standing guard.

doctokwus:
What has brought the new govt into this issue?
The petitioner finds it easy to question the essence of change Nigerians voted for but cannot first do the simple task of mentioning the name of d so called general.
Mention d name of d pson if u sure of your facts,not trying to blackmail a govt with wide allegations.
As an aside,with the cost of land in banana island and d way d place is hyped,I was expecting to see exquisitely tarred roads, non visible electric cables (underground electric cables) and fancy cars;but what am seeing in these pictures is an anticlimax.

Land Grabbing Scandal At Banana Island

Under the orders of an Army General and the Presidential Implementation Committee (PIC) Some men of the Nigerian Navy and the Nigerian Army Illegally and in contravention of a court injunction stormed a massive expanse of land around Onikoyi area of Banana Island in Ikoyi, owned by the Onikoyi and other private citizens and forcefully ejected workers and the owners of the land.

They later moved on to expand their land grabbing operation using violence and weapons assigned them to serve and protect citizens. A senior officer among the soldiers said they were acting on the orders of the Presidency/Federal Govt. This operation has seen the alleged Land Grabbers forcefully take control of prime water front properties spanning acres and worth 400Million Naira per plot. The land grabbing exercise by these individual wreaks of gross abuse of power. This is not the change we votes for. As at the time of this post men of the Nigerian Army were seen on the premises guarding the land. More evidence on their activities will be posted on this thread shortly.
