Yemi Alade Criticizes Lagos State’s Demolition Spree: Homeowners Left Homeless and Desperate
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Lagos state has been on a demolishing spree since the beginning of the year, leaving homeowners homeless and distraught. Many property owners have voiced their complaints about the demolitions and how they have been adversely affected.

In a show of solidarity with homeowners, popular Nigerian singer Yemi Alade has taken to her Instagram to condemn the actions of Lagos state governor, Governor Sanwo Olu, regarding the demolition of properties across the state.

Yemi Alade pointed out that the state government’s actions are eroding trust not only in the concept of Nigeria but also in the hard-earned savings of its citizens, which they have invested in making their lives better.

She wrote: “Lagos State, what’s going on? Does it make sense that people will invest millions of naira and millions of dollars into real estate, buying houses and land, and Lagos State will go and be breaking walls and breaking houses, rendering people homeless overnight?

And it’s done serially. It’s done back-to-back. Right now, Maryland, Mende area is on fire. People are sleeping in their houses, waking up the next day homeless.

You’re ruining the real estate value of the country, ruining the real estate value of Lagos. Making people lose trust not only in the idea of Nigeria but lose hope entirely in the little coin they’ve saved to make their lives worthwhile. To create some kind of generational wealth.

“How is this okay? And why? Does it make sense? In multi-million-dollar houses, there is a better way to do things.”

Reality Check: Balancing Development and Regulation in Lagos State

Yemi Alade’s post reflects the anguish of homeowners whose properties have been destroyed. However, in Lagos state, many poorly constructed houses fail to comply with regulations and proper construction procedures, causing significant problems for the state.

Houses built on drainage paths obstruct the flow of water, leading to flooding during the wet season and hindering the construction of roads. While the demolitions may seem harsh, they are a necessary measure to facilitate the development of Lagos state and promote economic advancement. These encumbrances on land are not new, and property owners are obligated to be aware of them before construction.

The situation also underscores the inadequate management and regulation of buildings in Lagos, allowing houses to be built in areas that impede development.

Conclusion: Navigating Development Challenges in Nigeria’s Federal System

Nigeria operates a federal system that grants states the autonomy to implement regulations conducive to their development. This includes the demolition of poorly constructed houses and those that do not adhere to regulations, aimed at fostering progress within the state.
