Video: Residents react as LASG removes illegal structures in Oshodi schools

The Lagos State Government (LASG) on Thursday commenced the demolition of illegal structures around  Afolabi Nursery and Primary School, and Methodist Primary School in Oshodi.

According to the Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, the owners of the structures had been notified more than once to vacate the premises.

“After the expiration of several contravention notices served, operatives of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps commenced the removal of infractions by the perimeter fence of Afolabi Nursery and Primary School, Oshodi and Methodist Primary School, Oshodi,” Mr Wahab said in a tweet.

Reacting to the commissioner’s tweet, some X users commended the state government for the action.

“I love this, this is my area,” one X user said. “That place needs cleansing.”

However, one X user pointed out that the government should also swing into action when road contractors default on deadlines.

Others asked the commissioner to look into other parts of the state where illegal structures have sprung up.
