Deputy Speaker Urges Halt to Igbo House Demolition in Lagos, Calls for Document Regularization
Deputy Speaker Kalu urged Tinubu to halt the demolition of Igbo houses in Lagos, requesting the President's intervention. Kalu expressed concern over the recent demolitions, appealing for affected owners to regularize their documents instead.
He criticized the destruction of properties and urged the Lagos State government to accommodate residents until their documents are rectified. The demolition exercise at Trade Fair Complex in Ojo Local Government Area has sparked controversy.
Labour Party's 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, also visited the affected area. The call is for a more considerate approach to address the issue without causing further distress to residents.
