This is the 3rd or 4th time that these people will be relocated. In 1948, the Lagos Executive Development Board paid the Oniru Family £250,000 in order to take over a large parcel of land in Iru. It also paid an additional £150,000 as compensation for the inhabitants that were displaced and the shrines that were destroyed. Some of the inhabitants were resettled at Maroko. That parcel of land was developed by the Colonial Government and by the government of Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa and it became Victoria Island. In 1990, the administration of Governor Raji Rasaki said that Maroko was unsafe for its inhabitants. They said that the area was prone to ocean surge and they gave the inhabitants an ultimatum to move out of the community. The residents took the government to court, but soldiers and bulldozers showed up one day and flattened the community. Brigadier Rasaki has since stated that he demolished Maroko because it was a den of criminals. Maroko was sand-filled and it became Victoria Island extension. Governor Michael Otedola was left with the mess that the demolition of Maroko had created. He decided to resettle the residents at Jakande Estate and Ikota Estate in Lekki. These two estates were built by Governor Jakande in the early 1980s, but they had not been completed before he was removed from office. They didn't have electricity or pipe-borne water at that time and the buildings were not painted. The former residents of Maroko moved into the estates anyway. (Electricity was provided to the estate in 1998). There have been rumours since year 2000 that the government was going to demolish Jakande and Ikota estates and it seems like the rumours were true. 40 Likes 5 Shares

agwom: I really wanted to say something but honestly I have lost confidence as a Lagosian/Nigerian. Even the people you want to fight on their behalf will still go back and sell you out. Let all of us enjoy. They might even relocate them to Ibadan one day. 13 Likes 1 Share |
