• Residents protest planned demolition of buidings
Normalcy has returned to Magodo Phase 2 Estate, Lagos, after security agents and suspected land grabbers, invaded the community yesterday.
The Nation learnt that the operatives were led by a Deputy Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Kotangora.
The armed security operatives reportedly stormed the estate to execute a Supreme Court judgment, which mandated Lagos State government to give back 549 plots to the original owners of the area, the Adeyiga family.
Hundreds of residents, business owners and visitors were stranded in the early hours of the day, owing to the development.
The two gates located in the Shangisha area were locked.
But vehicular activities resumed around 1pm.
