Photos: Authorities Demolish Popular Brothel, S3x Workers Stranded.

Many sex workers in Abuja have become stranded following the demolition of a popular brothel, Chris Garden and Guest Inn at Dakibiu, Jabu, on Wednesday, September 16.

According to reports, owners and occupants of structures in the community had been given demolition notices requesting them to leave.

Owners including residents living in the community, Dakibiu flooded the streets and were seen trying to cart away their properties before officials arrived with bulldozers as early as 9 a.m yesterday.

The entire structure holding about 36 rooms were demolished within 15 minutes as the sex workers and other occupants watched in agony.

Some commercial sex workers were still packing their belongings when the exercise started, Premium Times reported.

One of the sex workers, Kate claimed they were not given adequate notice before the demolision exercise.

“This is unfair, at least they should have given as at least two weeks to pack out and find another place to stay,” she said.

After the exercise, scavengers started prowling the debris for valuables, picking rods and some other building materials.
