Yemi Alade, a Nigerian singer, is speaking out against the demolition of homes in Mende Estate, Lagos State. She expresses frustration at the destruction, which can leave residents without shelter overnight.
The singer has criticized the Lagos State government for not offering alternative solutions and for their poor approach to such matters. She continues to raise her voice against the ongoing demolitions in the area.
Recently, Yemi Alade responded to a demolition in Mende Estate, which gave residents just two hours’ notice before their building was destroyed. She called for the government to inform residents directly or make public announcements before taking such drastic actions.
The singer believes that sudden demolitions cause unnecessary trauma to innocent citizens. She has also faced criticism from those who question her involvement in the issue, but she remains confident that they too will be affected by the demolitions.

Jude advised: “Yemi kindly ignore the APC trolls, they do not have the best interest of Nigeria at heart. They don’t have independent mindsets, they are slaves.”
Playsafe said: “It’s really sad, some trolls don’t know what it means to lose a house because they don’t have anything of value.”
Bayo wrote: “This gaslighting is DOA…if you break the law….the law will eventually catch up with you. Don’t be a lawless woman”
