Gbolahan Oki, general manager of the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA), announced the planned demolition during an assessment visit to the market, on Friday. Some are already moving out of their shops.click d link for video

Those building may collapse soon,govt need to take action

It is for their own good.

It’s not a tribal something
The buildings may collapse anytime
So it’s best to be proactive about it

But build another one in replacement so God won’t pvnish Sanwo Oshi

Tribal how, most of those houses should be owned by Yoruba's cos they are old houses. Even though but they...

Anyone having issue with this should go to court

Nobody should complain here after all we believe that Lagos is a no mans land

It’s “NOT” a tribal something

Have sense and stop being a bigot. It’s not doing you any good 👎

helinues:

Those old mud houses belong to Yorubas, so na Yoruba landlord loose, the occupants of those buildings will rent elsewhere

The landlord will loose yearly rent and loose his property as well

So if you think you are doing the Igbos, think again

Exactly my point, reason why no one should tag this tribal things. Landlord of a house na one, but the tenants can be up to 50. 50x17

Hehehehe

Government should give the owners of the buildings ultimatum to demolish them themselves and rebuild, he can make loan available to them for that so that nobody loses his or her properties

It is a win win for both landlords and the tenants. In fact, the tenants could lost their lives in addition to their properties if the buildings collapse during the day time.
As for the landlords, once your own building is brought down, get money from those who are willing to pay rent in advance and build your house back or better still, approach a bank for money while using propose house as collateral

But nna Lagos is over hyped ooh but that will not stop me i'm relocating to Lagos island soon .

I have no option as a business man I do not love Lagos but I love Lagos population to sell my products

It is a good move but I smell ulterior motives and personal vendetta under the guise of genuine concern here. Sanwo olu can't deny not knowing the state of those buildings before now. So why wait till after winning his election for a second term.

Secondly, there are so many buildings around okokomaiko, ajagbandi and environs that are in similar or worst state than the ones in alaba international, what's he doing about them?

Instead demolishing why not ask them to quickly renovate accordingly.
After completion now, they start reselling the shops to other people different from the existing occupants as we have seen in other places like teju oso market and alaba suru markets that have ultra modern buildings that can't be occupied rather people sell on the streets in front of these buildings cos of the outrageous costs

You're really funny o which bank in Nigeria will give you loan using a proposed house as a collateral?

Lol Govt should build a replacement doz Property are private Property most of doz property belongs to indegene...


Govt can only compensate the owner unless you want the Government to turn the place to another Tejuosho market that they inflate the rent after building shops derr....

Oga if you don't know about something ask questions. Most of those properties have been bought over and rightly belongs to Igbos.
My brother if they belong to Yorubas, I can tell you for free that the government would have given them time to demolish and rebuild by themselves.
See the spare parts market at akere that got burnt in ajegunle has been taken over by the government.

Many banks, if you are ignorant of it , go out and ask questions.
The bank will only request that they be part of the contract supervision, then they release the money in batches as the building project advance from one stage to another.

You always claim your region is the best Curry to prepare Taiwan rice, why relocating to somewhere lower than the standard of level of your region? Forward or backward?

But that same population, you can only have it where it's conducive and secure to do business.

Could we say that was the reason for una less population to have the market to sell your products?
