Nigerian artist Yemi Alade has expressed her strong criticism towards the Lagos State government on X platform regarding the recent demolitions of residences in the Mende region of Maryland.

After learning that the residents were given a mere two-hour notice to leave their homes before demolition, the performer utilized her X social media account on Monday, May 6, 2024, to publicly criticize the leadership of Lagos State.S

She wrote, “Thank you for giving me & millions of others a reason to NOT INVEST IN LAGOS REAL ESTATE @followlasg. Maybe when you are done turning the whole Lagos into a network of Roads with no residents then your MEGA city dreams will be complete. Please start refunding legal buyers at least.”

Alade voiced her dissatisfaction and urged the government to improve its practice of giving prior notice before carrying out demolitions.

She said, “Send notices to the residents directly! Put it in the news! Showing up like santa clause and issuing 2hr notice is trauma unleashed for undeserving citizens. They are not the developer and yes the developer has also failed residents!”

“Why and how was the building APPROVED in the first place! @followlasg. Why and how was the building plan of Mende villa 1 approved in the first place! @followlasg. You have commissioned several building plans in conjunction with Legrande and gained the trust of many. Why dash it all with this one blow? 2hrs notice is trivial!”

It is important to state that the commissioner of the ministry, Tokunbo Wahab, has refuted the allegations that the residents were only given a two-hour notice, emphasizing that they were adequately informed beforehand.
