Lagos demolishes parts of Jakande for a 700-km coastal highway, displacing 200,000 residents amid Nigeria's economic crisis.

Lagos, Nigeria's economic capital, is demolishing parts of the eastern Jakande district for a planned 700-km coastal mega-highway linking Lagos to Calabar. About 200,000 residents live in informal settlements in Jakande, and many of the houses scheduled for demolition are deemed illegal by local authorities. Amid Nigeria's economic crisis, thousands of families are left homeless and facing hardships due to the sudden demolitions.
