The Lagos State Police Command on Wednesday deployed teargas to disperse residents protesting at the State House of Assembly complex.
The protesters assembled at the complex to condemn demolition exercises affecting Makoko, Owode Onirin, Oworonshoki, Otumara and Baba-Ijora.
They accused the Lagos State Government of carrying out the demolitions without proper engagement with affected communities.
According to them, the exercises were conducted without adequate compensation for residents.
They also alleged the absence of clear resettlement plans for those displaced by the demolitions.
