What They Just Did To My Brother In Lagos –Peter Obi

Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, -Peter Obi, is lamenting about what the authorities have done to his brother in Lagos.

Speaking via his verified X handle, Obi stated that the Lagos authorities have demolished a property belonging to his brother without any legal justification.

According to him, the property in question had been there in the last 15 years, and he wondered why it was now being brought down.

“This morning, my youngest brother called me frantically, informing me that a group of people had invaded his company property in Ikeja, Lagos, and were demolishing the building.

“He had just come in from Port Harcourt and was denied entry to the property by security men who told him the building was being pulled down”, the politician said.

Obi, said the property was brought down yet to be identified persons who wielded a bogus court order, lamented he had to rush down from but was not allowed access to the premises.

“How do you sue an unknown person? How does a court issue a judgment in such a farce of a case? No one was served. No name was written.

“Yet they showed up with excavators and began destroying a structure that had stood for over 15 years,” he said

“I stood there from 10 am to 2 pm, waiting to get a call from whoever ordered the demolition. Nobody came. The contractor didn’t even know who sent him.

“Two men later came and said they would like us to go to a police station. I asked if they even had a demolition order but they had nothing.

“The whole situation screamed of coordinated lawlessness and impunity. Our country has become lawless.

“This is not about me or my brother—it’s about what ordinary Nigerians go through every day.

“If this can happen to someone with a registered company and legitimate ownership, what hope does the average citizen have?”

“If this can happen to someone with a registered company and legitimate ownership, what hope does the average citizen have?”, -Peter Obi rhetorically asked.

He reiterated his commitment to building a new Nigeria “where lawlessness will be a thing of the past, and protection of life, property, and civil rights are guaranteed.”
