The Lagos State Government has cleared unauthorized shanties and a car wash in the Lekki area.
The Commissioner for the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, announced the development in a post on X on Tuesday.
He stated that the enforcement team conducted the demolition at Lafiaji Beach and along Platinum Way in the Igbokusu area of Lekki.
“These structures not only deface the environment but also encourage indiscriminate waste disposal and unhealthy practices along our coastal corridors,” Wahab said.
He noted that the state government would not allow such activities to continue unchecked.
The commissioner added that “as a government, we cannot allow such activities to continue unchecked.
“We remain committed to restoring order, protecting our waterfronts, and ensuring that public spaces are used responsibly and in line with environmental laws.”
