The Federal Government, Thursday, disclosed that demolition of structures within the first three kilometres of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will begin on Saturday, April 27.
The Federal Controller of Works, Lagos, Mrs Korede Keisha, disclosed this at a news conference in Lagos.
She said that structures to be demolished would be those within the designated right of way for the project.
She therefore appealed to property owners who received demolition notices and have concerns to visit the secretariat of the Federal Ministry of Works from today, Thursday, April 25, until tomorrow, Friday, April 26, to discuss their concerns.
“So, I want to use this medium to reach out to as many as we cannot put calls across to, and this will go a long way to let them know that their issues will be sorted out between today and tomorrow.
“Especially if you are within zero to three kilometres of the projects and you have been marked. You have been identified as standing in the right of way of the project corridors.”
The 700 km Lagos-Calabar coastal road will be constructed for N15 trillion, and a kilometre of the road will cost N4 billion.
