Any alt08066502160ernatives for them ?

What alternative? Are you telling me that if someone builds shanties around your home when you are away and you got back, gave them one week notice to evacuate which they didn't and you decide to buldoze it away, you would still provide alternative. I know the area like the back of my hand, the settlers there are predominantly northerners from Jigawa,Sokoto,Borno etc they are becoming so much and are security threat.

And some hardened criminals live in those places and they also collect rent and tax from the other Jew men who own shops there. Drug sales and abuse, teen pregnancy everywhere, innocent children are quickly corrupted and robbed of their childhood, countless sex abuse, the list goes on and on

You really know that place ..even Boko Haram members reside there

You can talk on matters of your state. Oh wait, you are a refugee who has run away from the state where the governor adds nothing but lives like a yahoo boy. It’s Lagosians that are now the mugus of Nigeria. We are tired of everybody. Let people stay at home if they have nothing to add.

What a senseless set of people called government, if the so called big men in power did not embessle the common wealth in the first instance, I'm sure their would have been more than enough resouces to provide low cost estate at least for everyone to put their heads at night, now that you demolished their shelters and means of livelihood, hope you realize you just unleash another set of frustrated minds, armed robbers, prostitutes and the likes to the already oversaturated level at hand. Until the government start to properly allocate the available resources the poor man will keep finding a mean to survive at all cost.
The only sensible comment here
Go to Angola and see
Government owns most of the Estates with a low cost estate that the poor can afford and pay for on a flexible payment plan. They just keep frustrating poor people in this country. Lagos is seriously facing a great housing deficit and the government are doing nothing about it. Go to under bridges or flyovers in Lagos and see the number of homeless people in Lagos.

If we put emotions aside, we will see clearing of shanties as a correct step. But emotions build cloud on human retina.

I don’t care where you are from. You are a parasite in my state and that alone tells me that you don’t have the right to complain or question me about opinions on my own state. Focus on holding your governor accountable so that you don’t come across as a defeated refugee who is too cowardly to hold yahoo boys to book. Yet will keep electing them and running to Lagos to become a great nuisance.

Are your governors in your state dead? All these people running to Lagos will not let Lagos State do all you have said for their indigenes. We enjoy nothing because others don’t have the balls to demand better from their own governors. Until Nigeria grants Lagos a special status we don’t owe anybody SHIT. In fact they should be deported. Let their governors be held to account.

That is irrelevant. As long as Lagos is a state in Nigeria and the constitution provides for free movement, there is nothing you can do. You cannot deport Nigerians to their states.

How will granting Lagos special status ameliorate the problem? Granting Lagos special status simply means Lagos collecting more from the federation account. This means Lagos will build more infrastructure (theoreticall), which will further attract more migrants from other states. It was the granting of special status to Lagos by the colonialists that caused the problem in the first place. Why put all our eggs in such a tiny state when Nigeria has huge landmass? The main problem of Lagos and Nigerian cities as a whole is poor urban and physical planning, concentrating physical infrastructures in very few cities or areas.

What do you mean "they should be deported" many people came to Lagos before your parents were born, and have contributed immensely to the economy of Lagos. Lagos was developed by non indigenes. The Tinubus, Fasholas, Adeugas, Ibrus, Elumelus, and hundreds of political and financial power brokers in Lagos were originally not from Lagos.
I am certain most of you screaming "they should be deported" are originally not from Lagos.

Lol. You think Lagos doesn’t have indigenes who deserve the low cost housing? Yes they are free to move around but Lagos has no obligation to provide anything for them. We receive allocation just like their state governors do. Let them go and ask their state governors for assistance. We Lagosians also need the help of our own governors and we are enough in our state. Lagos is one state of 36 in Nigeria. They can try your state.

At least for once, your state governors can make use of their brains. Instead of living like Kings. Empty and shameless cowards. You call yourself a man though... I am sure you can’t write this stupid epistle yo your state Governor. But when it comes to Lagos everybody has an opinion.

they should find their ways, too many criminals and illegal immigrants hiding in those holes and shanties
And you know this because?

I knew many people that lived in bar beach and NPA shanty in the late 2000s. There were hardly any known criminal living there. Most people living in these shanties were low income earners like driver's, domestic staff and office workers. Of course there were the ashawos, but armed robbers and hard criminals? No. For your information, the shanties are not free. The residents pay landlords, sometimes exorbitantly.

Was the demolition itself legal? You cannot use an illegal action to salvage another illegal action. Only a court can order a legal demolition and if that was not done those people have a remedy. The problem is 99.9 percent of them or Nigerians in general don't know.

. You dey claim Lagos and you ain’t even from there. Let me tell you something kid. You need to move around the world and be back. Not just sitting at a place and claiming a land u came to meet and will still die to be buried maybe in a forest. You know nothing about life an dwhere you are. No matter where you come from what matters is what impact you’ve made to sustain humanity. Claiming a particular land that’s not yours makes you a baby. For your info listen kid. I am from Epe and I’m a stakeholder at Lakowe lakes and country estates. So you see kid not everyone you run into here that’s a puppet like you. When you play football with kids you get tired easily. I’m tired of playing that football. See through your life more than just claiming a place you’ll die and leave someday. Let me know when you’re going back to school and I will mobilize few funds for you. Compliments of the season son. DM if you can.

You talk like a kid, an ignorant one at that. I have been in Lagos for over 40 years. I watched Lagos develop. When I moved to V/I in 1980, it was relatively undeveloped. We had to take independence bridge to get to where law school is now, there was no Falomo bridge. There was a village between ahmadu bello and the ocean then.
I know many indigenous Lagosians, even most of the traditional ruling families. I personally know the Onirus, the Ojoras, the Oyekans and many others.
Lagos was developed by outsiders not indigenes. Indigenes were/are mostly "omoniles" selling lands to others, who in turn build modern buildings. Of course some also went into property development.

Sorry to say but ur reply shows hw insensitive and myopic u are in ur thinking. U are d type dat complained abt those attacks in south Africa but unknown to u ur reply portrays d same tin. We are Nigerias for Christ sake and we should be free to live anywhere in d country in peace and harmony, do u knw hw many yorubas that live in the north, east and south living legally and illegally, trade and better standard of living makes people migrate to different zones for settlement.
If truly their stay there is causing havoc den d government should make an alternative to them.

Free to live anywhere legally, that's the key phrase. Integrate yourself into the community, get the necessary permits and pay the due taxes on your business activities...seriously, people like you need to set ethnic sentiments aside and reason properly

Most of those guys are petty hustlers who think they will hit it big in the city, just look at the horrible, disorganised and filthy environment with no sewage system or security (there are a lot of criminals among them you can be sure). They need to be ejected for the greater good of society, let them go back to their villages and farm the land
