0lumide: Make him go use him senatorial power open am naa....

The traders should go and clean up the market.

Geez!!! I can't believe this people. You make a living from somewhere and the place got shut because it is dirty, what were you suppose to do? CLEAN UP!!!

Clean up and get back to your livelihood. If you are not going to clean up, you can as well forget about the market. Should Lagos state government clean the place up, the market is gone bye bye.

Kx: Some of us were attracted to this thread mistaking Uba for UBA-United Bank for Africa.

Kindly modify topic to read Andy Uba- not just Uba.

OkparaIgbo: I see no begging in Uba's statement.. Very mischievous journalism here. As for the traders and anyone that thinks it is the in thing to run your business outside of Ala Igbo then ntooooooo to you on how you are been treated each and everytime..! When will you all begin to learn. As for me I run my business fully in the South East and there is no way I'm moving it to anyother region until I am satisfied that I have covered and saturated my region...Tufia kwa. I learnt from my Dad and I have since grown to see wisdom in his business decisions. To all those Igbo business men and women running away from Ala Igbo, keep running.! Are you a learner..?

Dudu_Negro: this market has been closed a week and when Fashola visited it still has not been cleaned. thats what i call defiance.

here's what the government should do......give these nuts till close of business on friday to clean the place up and be ready for an inspection saturday morning. if they fail to clean up or fail the inspection, then demolish the market and use the space for something else. the traders must be banned from running any registered trade in lagos for 5yrs and if caught violating the order or caught in a crime, they will be charged to court to face prosecution.

Dudu_Negro:
there is a senator in lagos whose constituency ladipo is located in. the proper political thing to do is to pull his peer aside and seek a comprimising outcome and not issuing a brash and irresponsible politically damaging comment in media.

i tell you mehn, ibos make it hard for anyone to come in their defense. imagine a senator crossing his constituent to go address issue with the governor of another state. oh my!

Ngwakwe: There is no proper drainage with modern Affluent treatment plant for those used oil flowing to the near by communities and river.

Has Fashola sent waste disposal trucks and container to Ladipo market for the cleaning?

Fashola, do your job and put down a safe operating procedure for the perfect sanitation of this Auto market and use Law Enforcement Agency to have them comply after DOING YOUR OWN PART AS THE GOVERNOR.

Obiora4life: Mr Senator Ndi Anambra,

After you're done begging, isn't it time you start thinking of alternatives? When would we learn? For all those who had been losing market, as much as I feel pity for you, but I hate to say that if this have to happen to open your eyes, then good. Obu osisi nulu na aga ebgutu ya, kwulu, mmadu nulu na aga egbu ya, o walu ben Johnson...

Tolexander: that is too harsh man!

ifyalways: How would the market be cleaned if its locked up?
Are the zealous police still on ground?Folks might fear and risk arrest if found within that zone,regardless of the purpose.
Do they need to engage a professional cleaning outfit or something

If ladipo is important to both parties(traders and Fash),they should do the right thing.

texazzpete:

Yes, keep polluting 'Ala igbo'. We remember those rubbish piles on the streets of Aba all too well.

The Government says they shut the market because of its filthiness. Pictures confirm the market was indescribably filthy. Why not exhort your brothers to clean up the place first and THEN AND ONLY THEN complain if the now-clean market is not re-opened?

People like you who will not do the right thing - and who will never exhort others to do the right thing - are part and parcel of the reason why Nigeria is in such a mess.
Rubbish.

liberty300: Please op, where in his statement did he "beg"? Why are you this misleading?

Dede1:
Why Nigerians are barrenly articulate when faced with issues slightly tinted with tribalism? It is not the responsibilities of the traders to cleanup market square. The traders pay taxes, including the environmental fees, to the government. The failure to maintain proper environmental atmosphere at Ladipo Market rests on the shoulders of idiotic Fashola’s government of Lagos State.

It is unfortunate Nigeria is a piece of dirt where airheads tend to lead bunch of moronic ninnies.

texazzpete:

Next time you get caught by police for driving around during environmental sanitation hours, tell them you pay taxes and see where that excuse lands you.
Using your twisted logic, a tax paying company is well within its rights to dump waste material outside in plain sight because 'they pay taxes'.

Most of the time, these taxes don't even get anywhere near the Government.

.Garri (x7):
Fashola should give the traders a deadline after which if they still refuse to clean up the Market they'll lose their shops..

If you can't use ur common sense to keep your environment clean, the off to ur village!!

Obiora4life:


If they loose it, not the best idea, but it will force them to seek alternative elsewhere, don't you think so?

Dudu_Negro: shouldnt uba be concerned about events in his senatorial district?

1. go find who demolished ojukwu library;
2. go find why igbo bodies are floating in ezu river;
3. go find who killed kwara police commissioner;
4. go find the kidnappers terrorizing SE.

Yea and when they get to another place they'd have learnt not to destroy the environment of ur hosts...

Obiora4life:

They have also learned to be wise to know that their hosts can be irresponsible and should apply precautionary measures.
