Can you share the true story so we can all be on the same page? I am with you. The compliance story does not sound serious for this.

The state government last week announced she will be clamping down on illegal structures starting from the island i.e. Ikoyi, VI and Lekki etc this is the beginning ..... I know that structure it's illegal it's was just newly constructed as an attachment to an old building. If u notice the main building wasn't knocked down. I can say permit wasn't gotten for that. But the state had already announced it was going to take down such structures. It's unfortunate biz has been taken away from people. But the government did give warnings, the landlord should return rent, pls folks should alert their people who run biz in such buildings to take note cause the govt will come like a thief in the night. This again is not new to Ikoyi cause u wake up in the morning and notice ur neighbors house is no more. But this only happens to illegal structures and illegal tenants

It is in this administration that we hear people commiting suicide yet the government decide not to slow down. Are they trying to achieve a suicide target

The question i want to ask is simple: WHO OWN THE LAND? LANDLORD RIGHT?... so i own a land that i can not build on? If its a permit issue, why not seal the shop until the permit fee is paid. The issue of permit has to do with usage right? I read somewhere that the want to stick to residential but yet they are asking them to PAY 40M, FOr what my people? its either the area is resident or commercial!!! there shouldnt be asking for money if the usage is wrong; they should just announce that they have violated the usage code and it will be demolish. period
