LAND GRABBER SENTENCED TO TWO YEARS IMPRISONMENT IN LAGOS
A Lagos High Court has sentenced a land grabber, identified as Olamide Adeyemi, to two years imprisonment for illegally taking possession of a plot of land belonging to a resident in the state.
According to reports, Adeyemi, who was arraigned before Justice Oluwatoyin Ipaye, was accused of forcefully taking over a plot of land located at No. 12, Adeniran Ogunsanya Street, Surulere, Lagos, which belonged to one Mrs. Abosede Adeniji.
The prosecution, led by the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions, Mrs. Olayinka Adeyemi, told the court that Adeyemi had been evicting the rightful owner of the land, Mrs. Adeniji, from the property since 2018.
The court heard that Adeyemi had also sold parts of the land to other individuals, thereby causing a breach of the peace and disrupting the community.
In her judgment, Justice Ipaye found Adeyemi guilty of the offense and sentenced him to two years imprisonment. The judge also ordered Adeyemi to pay a fine of N500,000 to the Lagos State Government.
The judgment has been welcomed by residents of the area, who have been affected by Adeyemi's illegal activities. Mrs. Adeniji, the rightful owner of the land, expressed relief at the outcome of the case, saying that she was grateful to the court for upholding justice.
The Lagos State Government has also commended the court for the judgment, saying that it sends a strong message to land grabbers and other criminals that the state will not tolerate illegal activities.
The judgment is seen as a major victory for the Lagos State Government's efforts to curb land grabbing and ensure that property rights are protected in the state.
