- I will be showing you how houses in Lekki, Lagos were demolished by the Lagos State Government.
The demolished houses were said to be blocking the water channels.
See the other buildings that were demolished in Abule Ado in festac phase 2 • The Sad Story of House...
#lekki #lagos
Part of the problem is that we don't like to tell ourselves the truth. Building in canal paths, blocking free flow of water is wrong, a danger to entire community. Those buildings should be removed, owners fined cost of removing the buildings, and possibly serve time in jail
more wisdom
Its high time Lagos state gets serious with approvals ..
Looking at where these buildings are located, it is not a surprise that they are being demolished. Title or no title, nobody in their right mind would be building anything right where it is clear that it is a canal zone. I mean somebody actually built a house right next to the canal. Really? Come on people be sensible. That is a waste of money and resources. They have nobody to blame butthemselves on this one.
I agree with you only to the extent that a developer should be circumspect with land situated on natural drainages. However, the Town Planning Authorities should guide those who approach them for building approvals. It will surprise you to know that Title documents were even given by the state. Are we saying that there is no master plan to guide the officials? I don't think so.
Unbelievable
@@andrewokobah8094 Most times they apply for approval with the correct coordinates but once approval is granted the developers would alter the documentation given to the final owners. If you even do a search on the land you'll find that the land has a genuine approval for the coordinates given to you.
You most be a wicked person, have you ask yourself , where was the government when the building was going on . Your government allowed them to build, took development fees from them and later they returned to demolished it, This is madness of the highest order 😳
@@wyndhambahrain2896 There is always a saying- Caveat Emptor. Let the buyer beware. It all comes down to the power of choice .I ask this question honestly- Would you buy land and build a residential home along a canal pathway???
No matter how you look at this. It 's still sad. They need to find the company who built these home and refund the people money back, I mean for real .
totally agree ..this should stop builing house on bad ground why near a cannel really bad management near buy in the first place ...time to get proper systems so all nigerians can live in hope of better things and healthier life
not the company that build the house but did the owner get permission or approval from town planning?
Lagos state government did the right thing, the people no get eyes to see na canal them build houses put ?
Can someone please tell me that the owners of these properties did not obtain the approval of the Town Planning Authorities before they were erected.
U are doing well sir more grace
Building on water ways no
Respect for laws and regulations
Yea, that’s the biggest problem with that country…the houses built on canals. Obviously the reason why there is corruption and inflation. And why there’s still no steady power supply….makes sense.
First of all why are people allowed to sell lands meant for canals and water drainage in case of rain, but yet they’re blaming the government. The failure of government in this case is that they allowed people to build the house finish because their not doing their own part
The Finished Bungalow looks cute and neat, but are the roads meant for Horses or cars?. It never falls to amaze me how the roads and streets of some of the choiciest suburbs in Lagos Look like roads found in the Movie "Mad Max"....HABA!!
Where are those men that always say don’t build house in your village first that it is economic waste , that you rather build in Lagos first , now see lagos see first buildings
80% HOUSE @ IBEJU LEKKI IS BEEN MARKED FOR DEMOLITION SO GUYS PLS BE CAREFUL B4 BUT ANY HOUSE @ IBEJU LEKKI
This is a crazy situation
Crazy indeed. Thanks for watching.
This is sad. The colossal waste of resources. The government is not blameless here. Government should have intervened a lot earlier. A lot to learn about conducting thorough research and due diligence before investing in schemes. Never follow the crowd.
Most of this particular Buildings don't even have the C of O.
Come to inland and build anything. You are safe here in Okeho, Oyo state.
This is so said I really feel bad for those who are affected
It's really sad. I hope they recover.
@@AfamOrjime too that is just heartbreaking
Lagoa state is very serious with these demolitions. Too bad for people that are affected.
They're really unhinged at this point. Thanks for watching.
Why they build in the first place , did they build illegal or without plan or are all the house being demolished did they pay for the plots😮 .I dont understand.
😮 where do they get the money you don't see this nice houses in South Africa suburbs.The people are rich there
@@NatalieBarends-uj3de🤔
@@NatalieBarends-uj3de
The people staying there are traders.
Where was the state government when all this houses were been built up this extend?
They were warned in 2019 and 2 years ago.
If the people had clear title they should have been compensated. Are titles registered in Nigeria? Just asking since I don't live there.
Too much waste of beautiful things. Meanwhile that house for sale has so much quality.
Thanks for watching.
Heavy noise from the generator
Were these buildings not approved before it was demolished?
Probably not. People need to do their due dilligence.
@@AfamOrjiThey got approval. It is hard to build in Lagos with out the authorities coming to monitor the builder
@@appleg4765 You are absolutely wrong.. they did not get proper approval. Some of the developers bribed officials to get fake approvals and thought they would get away with it. Some of the actually get away with it but not all the time.
This behaviour happens in every aspect of our lives: we bribe NEPA, we bribe police, we bribe immigration.. we bribe all manner of government officials in order to cut corners.
It’s unimaginable how people flaunt the rules and then complain when actions are taken against them. Even the so called Estate looks like shanty town. No single tree🌳 in the environment. Terrible developers 😮
How l wish that people listened to the Leftnant Cornell Ojukwu told you About 15 years ago .no how it would nt have been upto this mess .if you have gotten patients
Ig bos stop buying stop buying any any any land in Lagos it doesn't matter where thy area it is ...
It's interesting that NO DEMOLITIONS in Makoko, where the YORUBA slums are.
The government has done them a favour because Lagos is part of the world that will emerge in water soon
Buildings can be demolished if close canals. The property owners need to be compensated. Nigeria does need homes but agriculture.
Am sure these demolition do not happen without owners being given notice lol ! Tell the story the way it is .
Chai 😢😢
Sorry but as for me I would be looking for the builder. This makes me pure sick to see this.
Some of these houses are neighbors to the canal. Everyone involved has to accept responsibility. The homeowners shouldn't be in a hurry to be neighbors to a canal. You breathe in the diseases from the canal. You can get sick. Common sense should prevail. The builders, the project manager, or the company should have known better, at least advise them. The government should have stopped them from the beginning. In fact, they should have put up a sign saying canal zone, land not for sale, government land, anyone building their houses will be demolished. Then, the people will understand, but they purposely allow them to build and plan a date to make them cry . That's hateful and vindictive, not to mention weak. They should be refunded.
Sad much. People should learn to buy houses with C/O like that new house for sale in the video. That house was done with finesse.
Exactly. Thanks for watching.
Are foreigners investing or what's going on😮 .It's expensive your country rich
@@NatalieBarends-uj3de Yes, they are rich but it seems it clouded their judgement to by a canal zone. No sensible person should be building there in the first place given the propensity for flooding. Wasted money.
That said, they need to hire a good lawyer to sue the state government for lack of due process. They can use that to recover some of their money if not wholly.
@@NatalieBarends-uj3deMost of those Buildings if not all where built by Nigerians. Not really foreign investors
Those houses were built by estates developers and sold to individuals with governor concepts letters and other necessary documents, so forget about those government criminals justifying their evil actions
I don't have business with Lagos. Any time comes Nigeria stay in hotel next day go to my state. Stop building house in Lagos
That 3 bedroom bungalow is built with one toilet, na wa o
No, it's not. It has 4 toilets. One in each of the 3 rooms and a visitors toilet making it 4.
Where was the government when this property construction was going on
Went happy to your own state why onther people state you guys have lean
Let everyone go there ways separate the country now we are notc1 nation prriod
Because of building demolishion? 😅dey play. Which state Government in Nigeria doesn't demolish when the need arises? Which country in the world doesn't demolish buildings that have contravened the law? You cannot fight government never
Anambra state started it before Lagos state. Some other South East governors are doing the same. But na Lagos they call out as usual. The hypocrisy is on another level.
Poor editing.
Igbo people should stop buying lands and properties in Lagos State go to the East. I am looking for how to start a campaign to stop Igbos from investing in Lagos. Mr Realtor you can kindly sell your properties to other tribes but as for the Igbos we shall make sure very little to none of them patronise you or other Realtors advertising properties in Lagos.
What you should say or advice is that any Igbo who is looking to buy property or land in Lagos should do their due diligence and also ask questions or go to the State agency in charge of such and be sure before making payments to any real estate company, anybody or family. It doesn't matter the tribe they are all affected, it just happens that Igbos may be more in number due to the area but Indigenes of Lagos as well are affected in different parts of Lagos state. For instance I'm Lagos indigene but a victim, cos where my house is at Ajah Lekki is under Govt acquisition and we are aware, the estate association is in dialogue with Govt but that doesn't mean by the time Govt comes and mark the place for demolition i will stay there and say they won't come and demolish.
1) Firstly, stop all this tribalist nonsense that Igbo people were targeted. This affected people from all ethnic groups. Some people just choose to turn everything into a tribal issue.
2) Nothing wrong with asking people to invest in their hometowns. But - before you start your campaign - ask yourself why these people prefer to build or invest in Lagos in the first place. So many of them find it much easier to buy land or conduct businesses in places like Lagos than in their neighbouring villages. Anyway, I think it's a good idea to go back because only then will you appreciate Lagos a lot more than you currently.
3) If you think that governors in the East are also not demolishing houses for even more spurious reasons, you will be in for a shock, o!
@@easyware Hahahahaa...so in one hand you agree that they is nothing wrong in asking one to invest in their hometown then in the other hand you deem it tribalistic and then say it's a good idea as Igbos will now know the value of Lagos.
I shall vehemently campaign for Igbos to go and invest in the East and I am a proud Tribalist, the useless nation called Nigeria/Zoo succinctly brainwashed Igbos to deem tribalism as a bad thing when they practise it but Nigeria openly practises tribalism openly, in the case of asking one for State of Origin during employment, entrance examination, admissions, quota system, the present APC Federal govt hierarchy is riddled with Yorubas and Northerners and hardly any Easterners.
I am a realist and see the world as a Wild safari where predator kills its prey. Igbos should invest solely in the East, they must stop investing in Lagos because the fall of Lagos is to the benefit of the Eastern region and surely Lagos must fall and the reverse shall be the case where it shall be people from the South West coming to the East to live for their survival.
People should stop being stupid.I think that's good enough advice. Buying land located close to a canal, na blindness abi foolishness. Buying land in abule ado with no proper documentation, land without FHA papers and C of O. People should use their brains more. Everyone go dey alright. Anambra started demolition before Lagos state. But we no hear witch hunt.
@@mrnaija101 That's still the point! You were affected, right? Lagos state is too volatile in land ownership to not warrant the high premiums it currently has.
