Lagos Demolishes Unsafe Complex, Orders Market Building Tests
The Lagos State Government has ordered the demolition of the Article Shopping Complex in Satellite Town, citing safety concerns. This move follows an enforcement exercise by the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) that uncovered widespread structural defects. Property owners in Agric and Coker markets now face a 14-day deadline to conduct structural integrity tests on their distressed buildings or risk prosecution. This action aims to prevent further building collapses after a recent tragic incident.
