hours earlier. Even the Ambassador of Norway flew in from Abuja to see

things for himself.

A Nigerian judge intervened and told the government on 26 January that

what it was doing was illegal. But they continued to demolish their

houses. They continued to shoot and kill.

About 5000 people rendered homeless and sleeping in canoes. What a

reckless government of change we have in Lagos.

What a heartless 419 government of change we have. Terrible, terrible

Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos. Terrible tragedy at #otodogbame in Lagos."
