Lagos State government has taken possession of the Okunde Bluewater Scheme in Lekki.
The re-possession was led by the Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, Ekundayo Alebiosu, and the representative of the Commissioner for Physical Planning who is also the permanent secretary, Engr Olumide Sotire.
The combined team had taken over the scheme occupied by the National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) and miscreants.
But acting on a tip-off, the team again visited on Wednesday morning, only to discover that NIWA had taken over the scheme, again.
This however led to a repossession of the scheme by the Lagos state government officials.
It will be recalled that the Ekundayo Alebiosu-led Ministry of Waterfront Infrastructure Development had launched an aggressive takeover of schemes illegally occupied by miscreants and NIWA three weeks ago.
