*Edo enforces physical planning laws, demolishes two illegal structures in Benin*

The Edo State Government has commenced the enforcement of the demolition of illegal structures in parts of Benin City, in line with the urban renewal agenda of the Governor Godwin Obaseki-led administration.

The state government, in a notice dated June 18, 2021, and signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Physical and Urban Development, Chris Abode, said the government began the demolition of illegal structures following the expiration of notices earlier served on them for grossly violating the State Extant Town Planning Laws and Regulations.

The Ministry had, at the weekend, commenced the exercise from a private property in Aideyan Road, Government Reservation Area (GRA), Benin City.

According to the ministry, the owner of the property had earlier been served notice on his property at 13 Aideyan Street, on the Ihama axis of the GRA in Benin City.

The notice was served on June 6, 2021, with a reminder to the owner to remove or demolish the building after it allegedly failed to meet necessary approvals.

Indications on the notice pasted on the front wall of the property show that the property owner disregarded two notices served on January 5th and May 31st 2021 to halt construction and remove the said structure but he continued development without obtaining necessary development permit from the State Ministry of Town Planning and Urban Development.

The demolition is said to be connected with the conversion of the property, from a residential apartment to a hotel, without approval from the appropriate authority.

“The government's decision is hinged on sub-section 5(b)(I)(iii) of section 7 of the Town and Country Planning Law Cap 165 of Bendel State, as applicable to Edo State, as amended by the Town and Country Planning amendment edict number 12 of 1979,” the ministry noted.

The government also demolished a building housing over 60 stores, which is undergoing construction at 90, Akenzua Road in Benin City.

According to investigations, the owner of the building did not approach the appropriate authorities for approval of the building plan.

A resident in the area, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, commended the government for the action, noting that it would serve as a deterrent to others who plan to disregard the state’s town planning laws.

"When I was growing up in the 70s and 80s, there was no flood or erosion because town planning laws were obeyed strictly. However, today, it’s different due to corrupt practices. People build houses on moats and block waterways with their structures because they know somebody in power. This is a step in the right direction by the government,” he noted.
