Lagos families list areas they claim as theirs and move to reclaim lands from occupants

  • Families from Lagos have expressed their desire to reclaim lands that were leased out many years ago
  • They revealed that most of the lands’ leases had expired and now want the lands returned to them
  • This is not the first time families have made such a step, and they will be hoping for another success

A group, Omo Eko Pataki, a forum of prominent indigenes of Lagos, has announced plans to reclaim their ancestral lands.

The move follows the Ojora Royal Family and Council’s recent court-ordered acquisition of the grounds housing the Delta State government’s Lagos State liaison office at Plot 235/237, Moshood Abiola Way (old Apapa Road), Ijora, Lagos.
