The General Manager of LASBCA, Arc, disclosed this, Gbolahan Oki, who said that the agency has given several notices and warnings to the affected residents to vacate the area to prevent loss of lives and properties.

The LASBCA boss noted that asking residents to vacate distressed buildings so that his agency can remove them is in the public’s best interest.

He warned that the deteriorating condition of some of the distressed buildings poses an excellent danger as their integrity has been compromised and could give way at any time.

Oki noted that the state government must act swiftly to protect public safety and avert any disaster often associated with building collapse.
