Lagos Begins Illegal Buildings Demolition At Trade Fair Complex

At the Trade Fair Complex in Ojo, the Lagos State government on Thursday began the demolition of unsafe and illegal structures.

The Lagos State Building Control Agency, Lagos State Urban Renewal Agency, Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority, and the Ministry of Physical Planning collaborated in carrying out the operation.

Jubril, the governor’s senior special assistant for new media, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, confirmed the exercise in a post on X.

He claimed that the action was to re-instaure order and enforce physical planning regulations.

He claimed that the operation was aimed at “illegal developments, structures without statutory approvals, defective structures, and buildings erected on road setbacks and drainages.”

According to Gawat, “The Lagos State Government has begun to remove illegal developments, structures without statutory approval, and defective structures, as well as those constructed on roads and drainages in the Trade Fair Complex, Ojo Local Government area.”
