Ambode shouldn’t have made his governorship ambition known at least for now. People will build only to be destroyed. Ask questions before you build.

Moroccoguy:


This as nothing to do with Ambode or anybody, government is doing there normal regulatory work.

Cindypresh:


So government agencies stay idle and wait till these buildings are erected then move in and pull it down

Is that how it's done?

The Lagos State Government has taken decisive action against illegal estate developments in the Epe corridor of the state. Dr. Oluyinka Olumide, the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, led a special joint exercise to the area, covering locations such as Alaro City, Okorisan, Igbodu, Molajoye, Shaala, Ketu, and Epe.

During the exercise, notices were served on estate developments including Patriot Bay Estate, Smart City Estate, The Legend, and Hilton Royal Garden, among others. Dr. Olumide emphasized that developers must obtain layout approval, planning permit, and fencing permit before commencing any estate development.

These requirements are essential for creating an organized, livable, and sustainable built environment. Layout approval ensures proper arrangement of the estate and allows for the provision of necessary services and infrastructure.

Planning permits address the planning requirements for individual plots within the estate. Dr. Olumide urged property up-takers and buyers to be cautious when investing in estates without approval to avoid unnecessary embarrassment and potential demolition of their property.


To assist developers and buyers, the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development provides a planning information service. This service offers information on approvable developments, zoning arrangements, and approval orders for specific locations.

The ministry’s staff is also available to guide developers through the necessary processes. Mr. Oluwole Sotire, the Permanent Secretary of the Office of Physical Planning, emphasized the importance of obtaining all required approvals before starting any project.

Additionally, property owners and developers are encouraged to take advantage of the 90-day amnesty period to regularize their permits for existing buildings.

Can’t the buildings be taken over by Government and used to provide cheap Housing instead of being pulled down?

Yes. The law plays a catch up game.

You are always quick to show Yankee style, but import their good ones for us to enjoy, una go blank

Our people know what's right but believe the government can do little or nothing.

I am having the same issue with my neighbour but he keeps begging after building an illegal/unapproved structure thinking nothing anyone can do.

The building will go down no matter what, it might not be now but it will eventually.

You want government to make use of same illegal buildings. we know covetousness and envy was behind the demolitions not the law.

Epe is in southeast

It is not anyone's fault that the meaning flew over your head.

Cindypresh:

Are you ok at all??

sonofsteven:


Have you asked yourself this question

What were the agencies responsible for all these doing when they noticed people have started erecting buildings?


If only you have ever bought a land or build a house before and all these starts happening, if you open mouth talk like this then,I'll understand...

Na why I first go local government office and other bodies for alausa before I made purchase of any properties and I ask for c/o or government approval etc before purchase

Abbeytoy:


To God be the glory, I don't just own any land or house. But not here to brag... Only few of my mates and those doing illegal can achieve what I
own.

We are all rich online.. we understand bro as e be like the world revolve around you wey make you think many people never make am at your age..lol



Now to the issue, what would you do if someone built I fence to block your water way or change the position of the original pillar just to get more space?

I am not an heartless person but I have observed that we know what is write, but we choose to do what we like.
