Delta State Government Demolishes Illegal Structures on University Lands

Date:

Delta State Government, on Monday, commenced demolition of illegal structures built on lands belonging to Dennis Osadebay University, Anwai-Asaba.

Speaking during the demolition exercise, Chairman of the Task Force, Chief Frank Omare, said they were mandated by the state government to recover all government lands illegally occupied by individuals or corporate bodies across the state.

On complaints by the students living on the demolished properties, Omare said their supposed landlords ought to have informed them, adding that some rogue landlords collected a year’s rent from some students just last week even after they had been given notice to leave the area.

He said the university authority has provided alternative accommodation arrangements for such students.

Clearly where we are now is the university land and it is meant for the Faculty of Agriculture of the Dennis Osadebay University, more than 1000 persons have encroached on the land and built illegal structures, amid illegal approvals.

“We gave them notice to vacate the land five months ago. We were patient enough to go round informing them so that tomorrow they will not say they were not given enough notice.
