What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A house developer in Osborne Estate, Ikoyi, denied claims that he built on a canal or high-tension line without approval, describing the accusations as a personal dispute over a gate. The developer stated his company constructed the estate entrance in 2006 for the Federal Government under a joint venture/public-private partnership arrangement. He also confirmed that the Federal Government and Lagos State deliberately kept the Dolphin Canal and Ilubirin Canal separate to prevent flooding.
