To peter obi since the owner is not a developer, the demolition is not worth reacting
Is it not ur brother that allocated the piece of land to him.
Ur brother just scammed the young man.

Very soon some of u guys will be out of job even the Agbero work u guys are doing both online and offline will not be there.

U better find legitimate job to do.

You should be worried about how OOL will get back up from this but you more worried about people who are not worried about you..You have not had millions so you won’t know what wailing is all about..The only thing you have is just your phone..If you ever worth something bigger than this,then you will know what it’s like..Ola is Yoruba but go check on him and see if he ain’t wailing.

Some one built an illegal structure and the government should get him another place after demolishing it.

How do you people think in this country?
Very soon when people drive wrecklesly and crash their cars you will tell the government to buy them new cars.

Building under the electric wires is illegal nobody is compensating him for his foolishness
The person should even be arrested. Nigeria is filled with too many clowns, and they have the potential to pick a President.

Where were the agency of government tasked with responsibility before he even built anything ?
It is good sometimes to let foolish people express themselves before you respond, that's exactly what the government has done.
Bro here in the UK he will be made to pay for the demolition. Yes, you see that bulldozer? na him go pay for am.
We too dey allow nonsense for our country.
Most of them are aware, most of them give bribes to the field staff of these agencies, they forget that the field staffs can't effect the changes on the system, they will only collect the money and leave for the mean time.....

GloriousGbola:
the video is very dubious as it does not actually show demolition.

all i saw was the fascia of the building fall down

that building appears to be a steel structure.

if lasg gives you demolition notice, you dismantle and recover what you can

nowhere in the picture/video am i seeing bulldozer, or personnel

this is just clout chasing
You can see the reflection of the pay loader (in the mirror) in this video.

Is Ola of Lagos a Yoruba man or not?

The correct question is "IS OLA OF LAGOS A MEMBER OF THE BATallion OR NOT"?.😏😰
Re: Ola Of Lagos' Car Showroom Demolished By Lagos State Government by Originalsly: 1:24pm On Oct 12, 2025
The problem I have with these demolitions is why were they allowed to build an illegal structure? . ... and operate a business Whoever was in charge of inspection and enforcing the laws need to be investigated and dragged to court.

If you do, you will know how painful and agonizing to destroy one's means of livelihood.
You must be an idler, jobless hence your tacit support for the demolition.
i don't get; you want to build your source of living under poweline? Ordinary street, transmission cable that fell on top a container shop in Lanre bus stop few years ago, killed a girl inside instantly not to talk of power line carrying high voltage.

What about demolition happening in Igboland?

Rebuke:
Chai, what is wrong with this country?

There’s absolutely something wrong with the Nigerian government. How can you just wake up one day and decide that a house wasn’t built properly or is in the wrong place—after years of construction?

What happened to addressing such issues right from the moment a citizen begins to build?
Where are the authorities responsible for ensuring that houses are properly built and situated in the right locations?

A very wasteful government, constantly plunging its citizens into poverty.

A very sick government indeed.
The government has limited resources to police law-breaking ar inception.

It is up to you to be in compliance because one day you may be remembered.

maybe the guy is more interested in clicks than in recovery

i say this because i have handled demolition notices from lasg or ogsg with respect to road expansion or govt taking over an area

so you go in and you evacuate what you can evacuate from the site

in the case of petrol stations, you dismantle eh canopy, exhume the tanks, evacuate signage, furniture, doors, windows , roofing sheets etc

what you typically cannot save is block work or concrete structures

thats why i am finding his story strange

his building is a steel structure. a competent team of welders can dismantle that in under 24 hours and evacuate the material to be used in a new site

instead of doing that he is clout chasing on SM

i doubt his operation is a genuine one. a real businessman would be scrambling to recover any assets that can be saved from demolition so as to offset the losses

This comment of yours is Exactly what the Lagos State government What from people like You...

It is Damage control..

They want People to think that the Target is not Wealthy Igbo Investors...

In any case, Ola of Lagos case is a more serious case; He's obviously situated under High Tension wire..and we can see the Photos before the so-called Demolition.

But in the case of the Trade Fair People,we didn't see the structures on any Drainage channels...

So Lagos State govt recanted and now said; "It's because the Igbos had no building "Approvals"...

..but the Igbos had Approvals.

See?

By the way where is the pictures of the Demolished Ola of Lagos' Building?

Goodlady:
How person go build structure for this kind area?
No be power line or high tension line be that on top?
What a waste without compensation.
It's now how person will build, it's about the corrupt Lagos officials, they see something, they will not object, but will charge you very huge charge and approve the building plans

Beside, the owner should had taken extra caution by installing nets in the four corners of the building right under the high tension poles

The Lagos State Government is known more for demolishing than building. They don’t build, they wait to demolish.
They are hypocrites. The ola of Lagos so called show room is an upgraded batcher whose cost of building it might not be up to 1m naira, with aim to make it look like it’s not tribal ethnic witch hunt targeted at Igbos or can you compare that his rented with demolished billions of naira worth of plazas and buildings belonging to Igbos? Don’t let them fool you

LeoThaGreat:
In Britain, the council will sue you to pay them for demolishing your illegal structure. If Lagos State government doesn't adopt this method quickly, its detractors will continue building where they shouldn't have, and will start running media campaigns to claim persecution, then hate-filled and envious people with zero idea of how governance works will ignorantly ask "Who approved the building?" as if Lagos State Building Control Agency doesn't mark illegal buildings with red paint 3 times before it's completion.

There are many people still buying and building houses at Peace Estate in Gbagada, Lagos when the buildings under and close to the powerline has been clearly marked for demolition by LASBA multiple times over the years. When the State government comes to implement it, idiots like Mrs. Kingsley Moghalu and her intellectual kin-folk will start saying rubbish like "Invest in Lagos at your own peril". FYI: Illegal structures are nuisances, not an investment. If it is permitted in whatever jungle you're from, never for a second imagine such will be permitted in Lagos. Remember you migrated to the SW for greener pastures because nobody leaves a better place for a jungle, it's always the other way round.

Pay your Surveyors and Lawyers before buying a property
Clap for yourself 👏

See the rubbish you are vomiting.

From your write ups, you are not a business man. But all those white collar jobs scavenger. A business man can't buy your gibberish and reckless verbosity.

Trade Fair complex which has been in existence before you were Born you are classifying as illegal structures and needed to go down for development.

This is political Hate and not development.

I admonish you to strive to make money and know how difficult it is. Not relying on white collar jobs where you see business men as mere toys.

Demolitions of properties not the answer. Especially at a time there is job scarcity in the Land.

Lagos state government is not getting it right. The other day, Tokunbo Wahab,in his usual pride, dismissed those calling for restraint in the demolition of properties. He was uncouth and with no empathy. Yet, this is a man who can't manage any smallest business outfit because he's used to dipping hands into government Till!

Nigeria cannot develop if we continue to pull down complexes which gives negative signals to investors and business men.

So Ola of Lagos’ car showroom was reportedly demolished by the Lagos State Government 💔😳

People said the car showroom is under electricity wires which posed to health risk in the area. I hope Lagos State government provides another space for him.

Did government give enough notice? No!

How do you expect him to vacate the place when relevant authorities gave him the approval,albeit the location is dangerous?

Sanwo Olu is now notorious in demolishing premises. He cares less what happens later.

Comeuppance will visit him someday. Let him continue!
