Lagos State Government has read the riot act to those flouting laws regulating building in the State.
It reiterated that anyone who goes to site and starts construction without a revalidated authorisation by the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) would be brought to book.
The media aide to Governor Sanwo-Olu on New Media Gawat made this known in a post on his X handle, Tuesday, April 9.
It reads: “Lagos State Government on Tuesday read the riot act to those flouting extant laws regulating building in the State, saying anyone who goes to site and starts construction without a revalidated authorisation by the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) would be brought to book.
“The decision of the Lagos State Government was made known on Tuesday by Dr. Olajide Babatunde, the Special Adviser to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on EGIS and Urban Planning, during a routine inspection in Ikoyi.
“Speaking to journalists in the company of the General Manager of LASBCA, Arc Gbolahan Oki, after sealing off some buildings that contravened the state building regulations, Dr. Babatunde said those embarking on construction without building approvals should stop work immediately.
“During the routine inspection, which lasted for about two hours, four buildings located at 13 Oroki Street, Queen Drive, 41 and 42 Alexander Road in Ikoyi were sealed up by LASBCA officials.”
