Satellite imagery shows ~364 buildings / building clusters affected thus far in the #Otto forced eviction — rumors the demolition will continue to neighboring #Otumara community — #EndForcedEvictions now! (mapping by Nigerian Federation, viz w/ support from @Data4HumanRight) – at Lagos, Nigeria
Lagos State Building Control Agency @LasbcaA forcibly evicted residents of #Otto communities in Lagos Mainland over the weekend — yet Otto is one of 7 communities earmarked by the Lagos State Urban Renewal Agency @lasura01 for upgrading. This is not the kind of upgrading we want!

@IDEAMAPSNetwork received reports of evictions last weekend in Mosafejo/Idiaraba #communities (Kosofe LGA, Lagos, Nigeria). As a network of stakeholders mapping and generating better data about #slums and #DeprivedAreas, we are concerned about impacts of evictions in communities.

#ForcedEviction is traumatic and disruptive, and often leads to long-term social and economic consequences whilst exacerbating vulnerability of those affected.

The fire was so strong, it is even visible from Space, recorded by the VIIRS satellite at more than 800 km, on the cloudy night of 10 June 2023, background OSM @nicerawanjiruki @IDEAtlas_EO @IDEAMAPSNetwork @SlumapOnekana @Data4HumanRight #NightWatch @skyglowberlin @FacultyITC
In pictures, two days ago we visited Toi Market together with @MonikaKuffer @dana_r_thomson a lecturer from Lagos University and students. 😭😭 It's sad due to fire outbreak the Market is no more
