Rugged Man is no doubt angry at the Lagos State Government for marking his father’s house located at Aboru area of Lagos for Demolition.
Read what he has to say below:-
The Lagos state government came on Friday to mark houses at Aboru Iyanapaja for demolition because they want to build an estate. There are houses including my dads that have all the appropriate documents.
They just brought a letter yesterday and asked us to evict in 48hrs. We don’t have anybody. No big lawyer or people in high places. All we have is God. This is a house I grew up in. This isn’t a makeshift house, it’s a double two bedroom flat. It isn’t on the road or anything.
Rumor has it that Ambode himself visited the area twice to inspect for demolition. Where does he want us to go? My family has stayed here for 20 years. This is a house my dad built when he was young with his hard earned money.
Now they want to build estate and give it to people that weren’t there when we started struggling. This place was all bush when we moved in. We made it what it is through sickness and bad amenities.
Now it’s opening up and they want us to leave to God knows where. Pls and pls, I beg anyone and everyone to help us beg the Lagos state government to leave our houses alone. If he wants an estate he can do that without sending us away and destroying the roof over our head.
We just want to live in our house in peace. Gov Ambode should have mercy please.
