The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, on Thursday, said the state government uncovered an illegal settlement under the Osborne Bridge, Ikoyi, Lagos State.
Wahab shared this information via a post on X.com on Thursday, along with videos.
Sharing videos, the commissioner wrote, “Another illegal settlement was discovered under the Osborne Bridge, Ikoyi.
“Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps #LAGESCOfficial (KAI) commenced immediate clearance operation.”
This comes shortly after reports from PUNCH detailed a similar find under the Dolphin Estate Bridge in Ikoyi, where tenants were reportedly paying annual rents of N250,000.
Wahab specified that the under-bridge apartment comprised 86 partitioned rooms, varying in size from “10×10” to “12×10”.
