₦500 Million Mansion Demolished in Festac Town Amid Ownership Dispute

A businessman, McDonald Ejiofor, witnessed his ₦500 million mansion in Festac Town, Lagos, demolished by the Federal Housing Authority (FHA) and Lagos State Task Force. The demolition occurred despite an ongoing legal battle over the ownership of the land.
Ejiofor and his wife were inside the building during the demolition, which led to the destruction of their belongings. The dispute began nine months ago, with threats from the FHA, culminating in the demolition despite a court order to maintain the status quo.
