Share this article

The demolition of a company property belonging to former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi’s younger brother by the Lagos State Government has sparked reactions from notable figures such as Labour Party’s 2023 Lagos State governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, who condemned the demolition, describing it as "lawlessness and recklessness" and a "notorious pattern of irresponsibility" by the ruling party.


Emphasizing that Lagos should be a state that values property rights and adheres strictly to the rule of law, Rhodes-Vivour expressed disappointment in the state's governance, stating that it is being run by "juvenile and myopic politicians" who prioritize extracting benefits from the system.


Also, human rights activist and lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has questioned the demolition and why the owner of the property was not allowed to remove his belongings before the action.


Both Adeyanju, and Rhodes-Vivour have called for condemnation of the demolition, with the latter stating that it is "a total shame" and recklessness that should be condemned by all.
