Yemi Alade calls out Lagos State government
Alade took a drive around the affected area. The singer who interfered in Davido and Wizkid’s feud hurtfully made a video pleading with the ruling party to kindly give adequate notice to the inhabitant before taking rash actions.
She said in her tweet:
“Why and how was the building plan of Mende villa 1 approved in the first place!?@followlasg. You have commissioned several building plans in conjunction with Legrande and gained the trust of many. Why dash it all with this one blow? 2hrs notice is trivial!”
She further stated:
“Send notices to the residents directly! Put it in the news! Showing up like santa clause and issuing 2hr notice is trauma unleashed for undeserving citizens. They are not the developer and yes the developer has also failed residents!”

However, the ministry’s commissioner, Tokunbo Wahab debunked the claims that the residents were only given two hours notice, maintaining that they were given ample time. He said this while speaking with Arise TV on the Sunday morning show.
