Oworonshoki Residents Protest Demolition of Buildings, Block Third Mainland Bridge

Oworonshoki residents took to the streets today to protest the demolition of buildings in their community, blocking a section of the Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos.
 The protesters, who were displaced by the demolition, expressed their grievances with placards that read "Stop demolishing our houses" and "Give us back our lands and houses".

The demolition, which was carried out by the Lagos State Government, affected several buildings in the Oworonshoki area, leaving many residents without homes. The government had cited concerns over the safety and environmental impact of the buildings as the reason for the demolition.
The protest caused heavy traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge, with many motorists and passengers stranded. The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, and other officers were deployed to the scene to maintain order.
