LASBCA PARTNERS NIGERIAN NAVY TO REMOVE SHANTIES IN ORI-ADE LCDA
As a way of restoring the aesthetic of the environment and in compliance with the State Physical Planning laws, the Lagos State Building Control Agency, LASBCA in partnership with the Nigerian Navy have removed shanties erected along Navy Gate, Satellite Town in Oriade LCDA of the State.
Speaking during the exercise, the General Manager of the Agency, Arc. Gbolahan Oki disclosed that no fewer than 80 of these illegal structures were pulled down in order to restore physical normalcy to the area.
He lamented the rate at which  some individuals would continue to erect shanties along major roads without recourse to the State Physical Planning laws and existing master plan designed for different areas of the State.
Oki commended the partnership with the Nigerian Navy, describing it as a “timely intervention” needed at this time to make Lagos work and salvage it from environmental degradation.
The General Manager also called on other relevant government agencies and organizations, especially other members of the Nigerian Armed Forces to emulate the Nigerian Navy in safeguarding the lives and properties of all Lagosians by supporting LASBCA in its efforts to get rid of illegal physical developments across the State.
