Lagos State Government has ordered the reopening of the residences of Lekki Gardens which was shut on the instructions of Governor Akinwumi Ambode over a month ago.
The order followed a series of protests embarked upon by Lekki Gardens residents’ and homeowners’ associations in the aftermath of a newspaper advertorial inviting investors in the estate to engage the services of a law firm to file a class action to seek judicial reprieve.
In a statement jointly issued by the residents, they expressed dissatisfaction with the decision and urged government to reconsider its decision.
According to the statement, “Houses developed by Lekki Gardens already belong to investors as the homes are sold ‘off plan’ and that amongst owners of the buildings were very experienced lawyers who have all decided to “identify with and actively work together with the various residents and Homeowners Associations and the Home Owners and Residents Forum of Lekki Gardens Estates in the various steps being taken by them to protect the investments of all the Home Owners, Residents and Investors without exception.”
