On Monday, a piece of Landmark Beach on Victoria Island, Lagos, was bulldozed to make room for the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway.
Dave Umahi, Minister of Works, has repeatedly justified the demolition, emphasizing the need of dismantling the iconic center since it is located on the Federal Government’s Right-of-Way.
On Wednesday, the federal government began paying compensation to property owners who had been affected by the demolition.
