Less than 24 hours after 86 rooms and a container used for different illegal activities were discovered under the Dolphin Estate Bridge in Lagos, another discovery was made on Thursday at the Osborne Bridge, Ikoyi.
The Dolphin Estate Bridge structure comprised of 86 rooms partitioned into 10×10 and 12×10 categories, housing illegal occupants before it was discovered and dismantled by the state government.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Hon. Tokunbo Wahab disclosed that the Lagos Environmental Sanitation Corps known as Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI), discovered another illegal settlement under the Osborne Bridge in Ikoyi.
Wahab made this revelation in a post on his verified X handle today, as he noted that the illegal settlers have been dislodged from under the bridge.
He added, “They have all been removed by the enforcement team of Lagos State Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources.”
However, a development that baffles netizens was the revelation that tenants under the Dolphin Estate Bridge in Ikoyi were paying an annual rent of N250, 000.
Meanwhile, 19 individuals were arrested under the bridge in Ikoyi, as the shanties were all dismantled by the Lagos State Environmental Safety Corps.
