Residents of Magodo Phase 2 Estate trooped out of their houses to stand guard at the entrance of the estate to prevent a bulldozer from gaining entrance.

 

According to the residents, police earlier visited the estate with a group of “hoodlums” and they “marked virtually all the houses in the fully-built Estate for demolition”.

 

Mobile police reportedly arrived again last night, Dec. 21, and a bulldozer was also brought to begin demolition.
