He challenged any of the owners of the demolished structures in the Ikota, Lekki, Alaba, Ajao Estate, Abule Ado, Ladipo Market and other areas of the state to come forward with their building approvals.
On claims in certain quarters that the state government has been targeting homeowners who are from the South-East geopolitical zone, the commissioner said those were not true.
