Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by chyemma: 10:57am On Apr 04, 2009 |
Our Dear Yaba Market have just been demolished yesterday 3rd April 2009. The worst part is that there is no alternative place for all these people I mean another place for them to stay, dont forget that some two or three years back, the famous Tejuoho market was burnt down by God knows who, and most of these folks at the yaba market are those whose shop was among those that burnt down. We all know that following Gov. Fasholas quest to make Lagos state a mega city that one day yaba market will be demolished as well, but couldnt it wait till the Tejuosho market which is still under construction is completed? Also a lot of other people from other demolished market have now relocated to the so called yaba market, now it is gone, where are all these peolpe going to? I wish I could get the pictures to post here but I couldnt take any shot because of the diappointment or do I say depression on the faces of all the guys and women I saw, so I also felt for them, I couldnt just take any shot at all, but if any one has any pls post for people to see. I believe some people will be sent back to the village; Olorun Ma je |

chyemma: Why Olorun Maje? Must we all be in Lagos? who will do the farming? Its a really smart move by Fashola. People should begin to look inwards , |

@poster thats the price some will av to pay for the mega city project. and yes, Lagos is not a must, if u cant cope, u can relocate. Afterall, lagos is still open, u can always come for holidays, lol |

congoshine: What are you doing in lagos? why dont you go to the village and do the farming yourself? some people could be so negative about other people's welfare. |

Fashola is da best thing that could ever happen to 9ja, Go on demolishing markets, infact we don't want any market in Lag. |

PurestBoy:You dont even know what you are saying,thank God your ass is very far from Lagos,i would have compared you with something.The man is there destroying every market where most people sort for means of livelihood without providing alternative yet you are here bragging as if he is your elder peep.Go get some sleep man and come back to NLD for better optionz. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by honeric01(m): 3:37pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
They should try other options e.g Relocating back to their various state where they would find numerous opportunities to make it better and even spend less in the process. (Lagos is too expensive for a common man to live in). Lagos can't be like this forever |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by alex406(m): 3:40pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
chyemma: I wonder what he is doing about the Tejuosho construction,the place is as adamant as a desert as if work is not going on there.So he should try and do something or does he wants demolish it as well? |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by alex406(m): 3:45pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
honeric01: Your type cant be a Governor else you will not accommodate people in your state. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by bawomolo(m): 3:59pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
alex406: How can people be accommodated in a state that's overpopulated? Urban planning isn't xenophobic. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by honeric01(m): 4:04pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
alex406: With the overpopulation in Lagos, i will do more than what BRF is doing. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by Redman44(m): 4:55pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
We need to realize that what Governor Raji Fashola is doing is good. There is no gain without pain. Lagos needs to be sanitized and made very organized. I'm sure BRF will find somewhere for the traders to sell their wares without them obstructing traffic and throwing so much waste around. I also think it is time for people to start thinking of settling down in other states. Lagos is not the only place where money can be made. Do you know how much money is made at Bodija Market in Ibadan daily? or the Oja- Oba market in Akure, Ondo State? What the Lagos State Government needs to do is to construct Modern Markets for traders that are far removed from areas where people live. Cheers. |

Making the poor poorer without affordable alternatives is no way of creating mega city. Mega cities are built by people financially empowered thru good governance. Nigeria, including Lagos has an average life expectancy of 47yrs and over 80 per cent live below $2 per day and compounding their problems thru demolition is TELLING A DYING TO HURRY UP AND DIE. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by MrCrackles(m): 7:36pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
Good move However i hope they find an alternative trading place for those affected! |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by congoshine(m): 7:47pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
chyemma: I'm not in Lagos. Im managing my poultry/fish farm 5kms from my village Advise your fellow Yaba traders affected by the renovation to do same. |

Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by zoraro(m): 12:28am On Apr 05, 2009 |
Fashola is like Emperor Nero of Rome who burnt the city of Rome because he wanted to built a better city not minding or caring about what happens to the citizens. |
Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by namun(f): 12:29am On Apr 05, 2009 |

Re: Yaba Market Shut Down Yesterday by zoraro(m): 12:33am On Apr 05, 2009 |
