Magodo Eviction: Police CSP Openly Defies Sanwo-Olu As Shangisha Landlords Intensify Efforts To Reclaim Their Lands
Despite the governor’s insistence and his presence, the CSP directed the governor to reach out to his superiors who he said are the only ones who can give him the order to stand down and thus refused to order his men to stand down from patrolling the estate.
A resident who spoke to newsmen decried the attempt to pull down their houses as he described it as a reckless display of power saying they were ready to fight and protect their houses with their blood.
The governor had earlier stormed the estate as residents sent out an SOS call as they lamented that the estate was under siege from the policemen who were seen marking various houses across the estate.
