Power Drunk: Amosun Marked Rotimi Makinde Building For Demolition
…Makinde totally demoralized over demolition notice of multimillion uncompleted building in Ogun
In what look like serial attacks.This is certainly not the best of time for a one term honourable member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Rotimi Makinde, it is not a palatable news that a structure belonging to him previously marked 6 meters owing to the development going on in Akute axis of the border town of Lagos state.
It was again on March 14th, 2017 marked 18 meters which somehow means that the building which had gulbed the famous actor turned politician over hundred million from a loan from Diamond Bank in 2008 according to him will have to go down the rain.
Meanwhile, not long ago, his hotel Capricornian Hotel also in the same axis was locked up for almost four months.
When we contacted him through phone conversation he spoke from Abuja, Honestly. Makinde said he was baffled with sudden remaking of 18 metres as against 6 metres that was marked in 2012.
He then enjoined the government in considering the previous marked length.
His responses:
“If you are speaking to me from the location for I understand there are lot of crowd already weeping and crying.”
“It was this day 14th of March 2017 that they marked the building again for 18 meters demolition as against 6 meters we had since 2012, in actual fact I understand few buildings to my property had been demolished.
“It was indeed a rude shock to me but if the decision to extend the road the more is in the public interest, who am I to complain.”
“However, I just hope the government would be sensitive to the plight of the people, what actually baffled me is the sudden re-marking which I understand was done today and changed from 6 meters previously marked again to 18 meters which will now gulped or consumed the entire premises.
“The premises use to be a school owned by me since 2015, which was personally pulled down in view of the on going development, it was reset backward to give room to the present shopping complex in line with the 2012 notice…Well life continues”.
