The Lagos State Government has rolled out the second phase of compensation for residents of Oworonshoki whose homes were demolished as part of ongoing redevelopment efforts.
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, through the General Manager of the Lagos State Urban Renewal Agency (LASURA), Oladimeji Animashaun, assured affected residents that they will be fully resettled and adequately compensated.
Speaking during the disbursement, Animashaun highlighted the government’s commitment to supporting displaced households. He revealed that during the first phase, 79 affected residents received their cheques, and the latest round has provided compensation to another 100 beneficiaries.
“Governor Babajide Olushola Sanwo-Olu promised that those affected would be compensated. That is promise made and promise fulfilled,” Animashaun stated, emphasizing the administration’s dedication to fairness and transparency.
He further noted that this second batch is not the final one, as more residents will receive compensation in upcoming phases. The government reaffirmed its resolve to ensure that no affected individual is left behind as redevelopment continues in the Oworonshoki area.
