I thought they Said that the buildings were on water ways and canals. So, After PO came and people with video evidence that it is never on the water ways they are now coming up with this one.
But come to think of this: Is Tradefare under the state government? Is it not the federal government property? Why would they now seek another approval from the State if they've already gotten from the Trade Fare Complex Management which is legally empowered by the FG to give such approvals on anything concerning the Tradefare? Even, if the State feel that they should have a stake, why didn't they just seal off those buildings and then Sue the Tradefare complex management based on the powers of who gets what and in what percentage? Is this reason enough to pull down people's investments like that and we still be expecting foreign investors to come.

You can use the cover of non compliance,non approval and lack of permits to achieve your primary aim of targetting a certain group.
Yes,when the matter goes to court,the traders would most likely lose because land planning approvals may not have been got or some areas deficit.
It's like the average policeman or case in Nigeria:he/she wants to either extort you financially or get you imprisoned for selfish motives or inducement from another party;there would definitely be a matter or document or act he/she can criminally fault a Nigerian for.Does the arrest or in this case demolitions make it right?
Why can't the certain group do the rightful thing which is a strong legal basis to sue the government and claim damages? NO, they won't. They will all cry foul play like you and the man called Obi who feel becoming the president of a Nation must be driven by tribal sentiments and display of ignorance. Always going about to stir up emotions of others on wrong reasonings whereas he has done worse too and is not any better.

The solution to Nigeria's problem is beyond Obi or any of these recycled politicians before you come for me thinking I am in support of APC.

Alaba Rago, a market dominated by Northerners, was demolished few weeks ago, no one has been heard crying foul.

Over 2000 shops were demolished in Anambra few months ago, no one raised an eyebrow.

Some things are just damn irritating.
Stop your lies about Alaba Rago market and go and read what the market men and women said
If you had build anything in your life before, you will know the pains that come with demolishing
Re: Lagos Government Reacts To Peter Obi's Visit To Trade Fair Complex by franudi: 4:41pm On Oct 01, 2025
So the best thing to do will be to demolish the buildings? If the buildings are yours will you demolish them? This is share wickedness. The government is preaching unity but by their actions they are seriously dividing the country? You are talking about rule of law but even you know that you are not obeying the law. Deep down your mind you know that demolish is not the best option?

You didnt seal the building, you just went straight and demolished all of ithuh The right thing to have done was seal off the projects then invite the principals but no, you went straight to demolishing. Nice nice!!!
Re: Lagos Government Reacts To Peter Obi's Visit To Trade Fair Complex by lwisee: 4:44pm On Oct 01, 2025
I'm a Lagosian, I don't support Lagos state approach on this matter.
Why will you demolish a structure just because they don't have a permit. The best bet is to seal up the place.
I don't support the fact that the Lagos town planing officials were maltreated. This should have been a good reason to seal up the place and take them to court.
A whole lot of properties in Lagos have no permit.
We need to create more enabling environment for businesses to trive in this harsh economy.

How I wish Ogun state governor can wake up, work on Lagos-Sango-Ifo road and Ijoko road which will open up business activities in areas not too far from Lagos.
Lagos is too toxic for any genuine business to trive. A lot of people are ready to move to Ogun state if there are good connecting roads.

Despite d fact that all my comment on this forum has been against govt of tilumbu..But peter is doing what is irritating me at the moment,,you travel far to come to lagos anytime u feel indigbo are cheated,,but keep mum anytime serious crimes or killings was being meted out by igbos against same igbos in ur domain..I never heard u condemn such atrocities...This is pure hypocrisy mr obi..

U may even decide to allocate more lands to indigbos if u become president to compensate for the years of perceived tortures from lagos govt...So therefore,,as omo oko yoruba wey i be,,my vote goes to articulate..
Tell us your real intent for this post because the former epistle can be summarised as AWAWI.

Na so, If obi really cares about nigerians, He should address Issues wherever it happens, not just when it suits him, Selective concern is not leadership but publicity

So, it’s now clear that they demolished the buildings not because they were built on canals nor areas designated as roads, but because they did not give “Owomida”.

And they couldn’t just seal the buildings but demolished them.

And people are cheering this heartlessness.

Nsogbu adiro!
Can you imagine your statement at your age?

Read what the Physical Planning Office said if you can't comprehend look for a young dude in your community to do it for you may be your mental operation level will wake up.

Anambra bulldozed thousands of shops did you cry? Bia, is this thing a curse or what? When it happens in our region we look elsewhere but when it happened in other people region it become a sin, biko na wetin?

How dare the traders to beat up staff from the planning office in their attempt to tell them those structures are illegal? Can any Yoruba man touch any igbo man in any part of the South East takless state govt ministry? Haba, let's reason proper abeg.

I repeat in all these I still blame the Yoruba hope in their next life they will consult the oracle before opening their hands to welcome strangers, it's a big lesson they are learning in hard way.

Peter Obi is called the chief tribalist for a reason.

Even here in Anambra, nobody takes him seriously.

He is always on the wrong side stoking ethnic tensions.
even there in Anambra or here? Which one?

Exactly. Supposing those traders regularise their permit, their buildings will be spared. It's not about building on canals

So Lagos state can go a demolish structures inside the National stadium without Federal govt permit?? What sort of impunity is all these?

Will Lagos demolish structures inside an Embassy in Lagos since it claims to control everywhere in Lagos?
Re: Lagos Government Reacts To Peter Obi's Visit To Trade Fair Complex by Mrexcell(m): 5:03pm On Oct 01, 2025
Let igbo traders and investors just avoid lagos for their own sanity the demolitions is just insane. Even if they don't have the lagos state govt approvals why not confisticate the buildings instead of outright demolition that's obviously done out of deep hatred and malice?
Re: Lagos Government Reacts To Peter Obi's Visit To Trade Fair Complex by hotseat: 5:03pm On Oct 01, 2025
The President of the Nzogbu-Nzogbu Republic of Biafra is back on the beat!

In his home-State of Anambra, he dares not show his "kpai number" otherwise Governor Soludo would place him where he rightly belongs.

Illegal structures are being pulled down across Nigeria without him poking his nose in those places except Lagos State - the Centre of Excellence!

What manner of President would he become if given the opportunity to rule Nigeria?

After now dem go say people hate them.

The Gbajue himself!

The man can lie for Africa!

Even the reaction from the Lagos state government goes a long way to clear all doubts that the primary reason the businesses of our neigbours from the East were demolished and destroyed is because of tribal hatred.

The reason given by them can be applied to all states also where the FG has acquired lands to lease out for business purposes.

Like I have said, let the tribal folks continue their wickedness and jealousy. Tinubu time is up. They should cheer and enjoy the show of ttibalism

Since the issue is paper work, they would have sealed it and give a proper penalty instead of demolition.
