Public Outcry as Lagos Government Demolishes Arowojobe and Mende Estates

We cover the recent controversial demolition of structures in the Arowojobe and Mende estates, Maryland, Lagos by the Lagos State Government. The government claims the action was necessary to clear the right of way for the Odo-Iya Alaro channel and to prevent flooding.

Join News Central's Bettina Nwelih as she unpacks the details of the demolition with insights from social commentator, Sola Omolayo. They discuss the implications of the government's actions, the truth behind the flooding prevention claim, and how future notifications can be more effectively communicated to the public.
