Demolition: Lawyers threaten to sue Sanwo-Olu over 5,000 displaced families

The African Bar Association has threatened to sue Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State before the ECOWAS Court and the African Court of Human Right in Tanzania, ”if the government refuses to listen to the appeal of people rendered homeless by the state”. Hannibal Uwaifo, the association’s president, said this at a press conference in Lagos Tuesday. He urged the governor to resettle displaced residents of Oke-Egan Community, Ibeju-Lekki Local Government, following demolition of their houses by the state government. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the community, during a protest to the Lagos State House of Assembly, alleged that the state’s Task Force on Physical Planning had on February 9 demolished about 400 houses without formal notice.
