Demolition: Lagos yields to pleas, gives property owners options to re-establish setbacks

Lagos State government, yesterday, yielded to pleas from owners of property located on drainage setbacks as they requested time to come up with options that would re-establish the setbacks without necessitating demolition.

The reprieve followed government’s continued dialogue with property owners on the corridor of Lekki County, Ikota GRA, Megamound Estate, Ajiran, Agungi, Orchid, Oral II and environs.

Speaking with the owners and residents at Alausa, Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, said the state is committed to re-establishing drainage setbacks which have been blocked or converted to access roads.

“The state government would be humane in its approach to reclaim the drainage right and will give property owners and residents opportunity to proffer a solution to reclaiming the setback, till a particular date, to reduce the number of structures that would be affected,” Wahab said.

He told representatives from Megamound Estate that the System 44A that cut through Ikota GRA and Megamound is a 19.5 meters (width) channel, which has been blocked by Ikota GRA and Lekki County property owners and residents.

He said the government is determined to find a realistic solution to flooding in the areas: hence, the 31-metre drainage alignment would be re-established and six-metre setbacks on both sides would be recovered.

He said all property owners whose fences fell within the drainage setback would be served mandatory contravention notices as the law demands, while enforcement would be a last option.

At the meeting, affected property owners pleaded with the commissioner to temper justice with mercy and grant them an opportunity to come up with solutions. The commissioner, thereafter, urged the developers and builders to always seek drainage approvals before commencing projects.

This is what I mentioned on Tokunbo Wahab page on Facebook that a guy came for me.

There should always be corrective measures since preventive measures wasn't taken into place.

Demolishing all those building worthy of millions of Naira is an eyesore , especially during this Economic Meltdown.

But before committing ones life savings to any project, one is supposed to embark on comprehensive due diligence and proper environmental impact assessment.

I am not sure you read and understand the report. The notice still stands, govt is just giving them the option to take the responsibility. I pity anyone who goes ahead to buy such properties.

The era of when houses built on waterways will stand and cause flooding in Lagos is gone. They are still going down except they use this window to reduce their property or part of their property that encroach on the set backs and drainages. If they don't do it, LASG will.

Everyone must cooperate with LASG. God bless Lagos state. God bless Nigeria for ever!Check my signature for free stuffs!

All these idiots on a faceless platform rejoicing over the demolition of people houses,, most you, your parents can’t afford 10 bags of cement …
The people whose houses are being destroyed are still better than you till tomorrow…
Nobody who use his hard earned money to build a house would be rejoicing when another persons house is being demolished, no matter the stories from government….
So when I read silly comments , I know it’s from low-life idiots who don’t even know the cost of a bag of cement..

Fair enough let them find a way to properly reconstruct the drainage channel system without demolishing everything in that section.
