The Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Unit, also known as Taskforce, has issued a three-day removal notice to all owners of illegal structures
“The stretch of the road has been taken over by mechanics, block makers, bamboo and wood sellers, shanties and other illegal occupiers, which will impede effective road construction work in the area,” the statement quoted Jejeloye as saying.
“He stated that on the expiration of the notice on Thursday, officials of the agency would remove all structures, shanties, abandoned vehicles and materials in the area, noting that the removal of all encumbrance and criminal hideouts in Marwa Waterside area would also help reduce traffic robberies and criminal activities on Lekki/Ajah corridor, particularly at Jakande Roundabout.
“The Chairman, therefore, implored the owners and occupiers to heed the State Government’s Removal Order as anyone found on the road at the expiration of the notice would be made to face justice,” the statement partly read.
