I am not a politician I also don't support people building without approval but as an experienced building engineer I can tell you categorically ( after reading and studying the contravention order) that its a case of vitimisation The level of deviation is not as bad as it's being projected to the public Do you know that there are thousands (if not millions) of buildings in Ibadan that don't fully comply with the BUILDING approval? And if that's the case why is the GOVT in a hurry to demolish the building The owner of the building should also not have ignored the request to regularise their building approval. The worst would have been to pay additional approval fee plus a penalty The GOVT also claimed that the radio station broadcast some provocating news or speech You don't fight a lion with bare hands Nigeria is a very CORRUPT nation with cumbersome justice system. So people should not play the game you don't understand. The owner of the building played into the hands of people that are always ready to victimize their opponents
