    Poor Maintenance: Lagos To Demolish Police Barrack Over Imminent Collapse

    Following poor maintenance of police barracks which has led to wear and tear of so many barracks in the country with attendant imminent collapse, the Lagos State Government has raised alarm on imminent collapsed of a police barrack, Mopol 20 Barracks, located at Onigbongbo in the Ikeja area of the state.

    Consequently, the state Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) has concluded plans to start emergency evacuation and demolition of the old Block 3 part of the barracks.

    In a statement issued on Wednesday, the Permanent Secretary of LASEMA, Damilola Oke-Osanyintolu, said its response team had assessed some parts of the structure and found them in a precarious condition.

    The LASEMA boss stated the building and adjacent structures would also be evacuated immediately to prevent any loss of life or property.

    “The agency dispatched a response team to the location and the findings indicate that the building and those adjacent must be evacuated with immediate effect. We are conducting a response plan which comprises an assessment, safe and orderly evacuation and controlled demolition.

    “Under the watchful eye of the Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu administration, we will be carrying out this preemptive demolition action due to the precarious conditions of the building and possible secondary incidents that could occur if left unmanaged,” the statement partly read.

    Oke-Osanyintolu, however, urged members of the public within the vicinity to remain calm and refrain from spreading misinformation on social media.

    He also assured the public that the situation was being closely monitored and managed.
