Save our ancestral lands, Ogun communities beg Abiodun

Residents of Fere and Oniporogun communities in Ogun State protested an alleged allocation of their developed ancestral land to Chinese investors by the government. They appealed to Governor Dapo Abiodun to halt bulldozing of homes, consult community leaders, and ensure industrial development does not displace hundreds of families or destroy their heritage.
