Hundreds of Lagosians on Thursday staged a huge protest at the residence of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the former governor of the state over the demolition of their homes at Olokonla town via Ogombo village in Etiosa LGA.

The protesters were displaced on December 16 2016, when some armed military men in the company of Lagos State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development officials demolished about 200 buildings valued at N15b.

Two of the displaced people died two days ago due to torture they received from the military men, Vanguard says.

Not satisfied with the development, the victims have petitioned the House of Assembly and Governor Akinwumi Ambode about the development without result. Having waited for a month without justice, the victims staged a peaceful protest at the entrance of Tinubu’s residence located at Bourdillon to register their plight.
