Are the police there in favor of residents or government? I didn't follow the case though...but the little I read shows that the residents won the case at various levels but are being harassed by the government

The police are not in favour of anyone. They are there to keep peace and enforce a supreme court judgment.

maybe the governor has no legal adviser cos he really goofed big time. He acted very clearly on the side of the residents of the estate instead of appearing neutral, even the governor of ondo who is d Yoruba governor forum leader acted with so much sentiments as if he has a personal beef with malami and the IG

state govt is not above federal govt. the supreme Court has the final say in Nigeria. so why is the governor going contrary to the supreme Court judgement. at least you read the article so stop giving emotional contrary comments. if it were Jonathan era it happen it'll be you guys claiming tinubu is grabbing the whole lags lands.

Most residents of magodo estate are politicians, their relatives and their tenants.

It was obvious that sanwoolu was forced to that estate by his associates who asked him to go their and use his power as the chief security officer of the state.

The dumb governor isn't even aware that nobody, not even the president can stop the law enforcement agents from carrying out the court order.

I respect that policeman so much, he knows his power and limit more than a sitting governor who doesn't even know the rule of law.

Mind you the governor was a resident of magodo before he was elected.

The president can stop it if he wants. For naijaaaa......abeg face reality joor

done by past military regime - so it makes sanwo ilu and the current govt less judgement debtors or what are you talking about ...

what is alternative dispute resolution that has no time limit or LASG trying to re-interpret a supreme court judgement whose content is clear - give them land in magodo - not in ibeji lekki or badagry

govt officials are arrested all over the world - except in the black underdeveloped world and thats why you will remain impoverished for life - because you treat issues of law and justice with levity

so the governor order is superior to supreme Court ruling? Wao! more educated illiterates .

What exactly did the supreme Court judgement in that case say Can someone who has access to it paste it on this thread pls. I've been hearing different versions, one say that the supreme Court instructed the LASG to allocate plots to the shangisha landlords which could be anywhere within Lagos while others say the SC ordered llagos state government to give back the already allocated magodo properties to the owners

The governor has final say over supreme court judgment? Are you a graduate? From which school? Chai! too many zombies in this country, tell me how this shithole go take progress with idiots like this

Helpfromabove1:
Please go ahead

So he should just keep quiet and allow 549 houses go down without looking for a better way out.
And if dere is a face-off that result to another version of endsars killing u will then call him names

So the original owners)/ landlord that Lagos state ejected are not humans. no compensation , nobody fought for them.
Now you know there 549 houses abi...

Some idiot will just open their mouth and talk. Arrest a whole Chief Security Officer of the State. The police officer involved exchanges words with my loyal amiable governor need to be sanction.

All this charge and bail lawyers will be ranting on social media, come to think of it, how many legal case have you won

Sanwo Olu is my man but I was dissapointed by his approach. He always Bleep up handling serious issue. I was surprised seen people supporting Sanwo Olu move. Let's forget d main main issue. Is telling CP to call his boss in the face of camera and crowd right? What are u trying to prove, to tell the CP dat his boss is less superior or what? Are u saying u can't address the crowd then send your aid to call d CP for u and talk like a an intelligent person. 12 yrs after supreme court judgement well.

This goes to show that the governor has limited power in a case where the military (Police and Army) are involved.

How then do people think that it was Sanwo Olu who gave the order for the Lekki shooting? What if the order was from the IG himself or the chief of army staff? What if the order was from the Federal Government?

Pls can someone summarize this magodo issue clearly....

Can you imagine telling the CP that, i love how the CP humiliated him in a smart way ...Governor who are your advisers you should never have gone there in the first place ...so embarrassing ..I suspect it was his mates in magodo that told him to go there ....A whole governor respect your office you ridiculed it

You guys are difficult to pleased.

Do you expect the governor to sit down and watch those beautiful houses demolished?

I guess you don't have any family living there.

Beautiful houses erected on people's land forcefully taken from them?
The governor was supposed to have been arrested by that policeman for contempt of court.

People like you are the reason why the country is the way it's today.

If you support years long injustice, may you never get same when you deserve it.

Sometime all thee charge and bail lawyer or SAN need slap at the back of their head so all he is saying now is they should arrest the governor for trying to settle issue in his state baa

Sorry IGP or not the governor is the chief executive of his state for goodness sake? And why would police laid a siege on land issue to the point Mallami was involved? If not something hidden somewhere.

Is Mallami that jobless? Is that land Fed govt land? Where is the commissioner of Land in Lagos? Does Lagos has no Attorney General or commissioner of justice? I'm sure Sanwo Olu will not just left his office and came there personally if nothing was shady in the police, mallami involvement.

And for the CSP challenging the governor, fine you are on ordered duty and you can not disobey your superior officer but next time pls apply wisdom because if you put yourself in between two poitician locking horn you might ends up being used to settle scores then you are gone.

Are you seriously real

poppincash:
Yes. How can a judgement made way back 2012 yet hasn't been obeyed by the Lagos govt. Now Nigerians can have an idea what Tinubu will do in power

This Magodo issue, I heard it was Tinubu that give Magodo to the Fulani, in exchange for becoming the president.

There are some serious underlying issues we are not even aware of.

What do I know?

The governor did what I expected of him. The litigation is strictly between Lagos State government and the landowners and so sad that it's genesis is way back 1984 during the military era and after then, consistent Lagos governments never look at it properly and fashion out a solution until now.

Sanwo Olu is being given kudos by me by the mere fact that he left the comfort of his office and went to the place to settle this issue once and for all.

Forget the disrespectful attitude by the CSP or anybody to the governor, most important thing is the fact that no live was lost and an amicable settlement is being worked out presently. The governor prevented all these unimaginable fights and destruction from happening by his presence.

I learnt a big lesson by the action of Sanwo Olu.....being a leader doesn't limit you to just comfort alone. Being a leader is sacrifice of comfort and convenience, taking insult from even the most stupid of person.

Sanwo Olu left his comfort zone and even threw away all paranaphelia of Mr Executive and came to Magodo to quench the brewing fire that is almost erupted into an infano.

Either you accept or not, that Sanwo Olu is a governor I have come to admire first in this brand new year 2022 and every good leader that has his people's interest in mind should emulate that single gesture of standing up when your people are suffering or about to put in a state of suffering.

Note: Everybody is justified. The landowners and the landlord's that bought lands from the government. No illegality except on the side of the Lagos State government that abandoned the landowners after selling their lands to the landlord's and even issued them certificate of occupancy. This happened under the military regime when anything goes just by clicking of the guns.

If it was a PDP Governor, all these shameless hypocrites would said otherwise.

everything to you is politics

So have you now said anything different from what the lawyer said?

Whenever I find myself in a leadership position, I pray for wisdom above all else. I also like to take my time to think things over before making a decision.

Yes, this may cause a delay of a day or two, but it gives me time to think things through.

The Governor's decision to go to Magodo was a poor one.

His action was wrong on all fronts. He acted amateurishly and extra judicially by intervening and seeking to thwart the execution of a court judgement.

The Governor comes across as a gentleman. I hope he learns from this experience. I wish him the best.

YES only if things was normal in Nigeria but sad things are not

Ajulo is tactless, speaking from both sides of the mouth. Is it after the residents houses have been pulled down that sanwo olu should come in for the appeasement?

Nope he doesn’t have a final say when the matter had already been addressed by the highest court in the land. Btw he shouldn’t have shown his face there.

Hmmmmm....even at d back of ur 'church mind' u are already seeing 'Tilumbu' in power.
That's good news to d BAT camp.

Allnacruise:
No

The resident and the Lagos State government are the judgement debtors while one Adeyiga family is the actual owner of about 549 plots in magodo...

Lagos State government took the land from one Adeyiga family..so the Adeyiga family took Lagos State government to court from high to appeal to supreme...and the judgement was in their favour..Since 2014 or thereabout


Nobody is harassing the current residents of Magodo...it's just the Adeyiga family trying to retrieve their lands...

Lagos State tried to relocate them to ibeju lekki but they didn't accept... because you the value is low compared to present day Magodo


The policemen only escorted court Sherriffs to enforce supreme court order....

Thanks
