“This is to inform the shareholders of 11Plc, stakeholders and the general public that the demolition of the Mobil Service Station at Maryland, Lagos state on December 7, 2020, was carried out pursuant to the valid exercise of the right of compulsory acquisition for public purpose by the Lagos state government following due process,” the notice read.

Who was first at that junction Oando or Mobil? according to the DPR two filling stations are not meant to be that close to each other so one of them is breaking the law.
