Makoko Makoko (also referred to as the ''Venice of Africa'') was a slum neighborhood located in Lagos, Nigeria. ==History== Its population was considered to be 85,840; however, the area was not officially counted as part of the 2007 census and the population has been estimated to be much higher. Established in the 18th century primarily as a fishing village, much of Makoko rests in structures constructed on stilts above Lagos Lagoon.〔 As of 2006, the area is essentially self-governing with a very limited government presence in the community and local security being provided by area boys. In July 2012, Nigerian government officials destroyed dozens of residences after giving residents 72 hours notice of eviction. The destruction of this historic community was in order to redevelop what is now seen as prime waterfront.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Nigeria: Day After Makoko and Abonema - Frustration of a Homeless Nation )〕
