A video has shown the heartbreaking moment the residents of a Lagos mansion rushed to salvage their belongings after government officials allegedly gave them only 2 hours to vacate.

The house, said to be located in FESTAC Town on the mainland in Lagos State, is one of those the state government marked for mass demolition.

According to those affected, they were given only 2 hours to retrieve their things before the house would be demolished.

One resident is said to have paid N1.7 million just one month ago to move into the house and now has to seek refuge from friends and kinsmen.
