Lagos Govt Reopens Sealed Ladipo Market.

The government said business activities would commence at the popular spare parts market, after its recent closure for various environmental infractions.

The Lagos State Government has reopened Ladipo Market, Mushin, after meeting “the most essential criteria.”

This was disclosed in a statement by the Public Affairs Director in the Lagos State Ministry of Environment and Water Resources, Mrs Kadiri Folashade, on Monday.

She quoted the Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab, as saying that business activities would commence at the popular spare parts market, after its recent closure for various environmental infractions.

The Commissioner noted that the administration of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu priotised the issue of clean environment, public health, and safety in line with the THEMES Plus agenda, which informed the recent drive to enforce strict compliance with waste management best practice across markets in the state.

The Managing Director/CEO of LAWMA, Dr. Muyiwa Gbadegesin, reaffirmed the Authority’s commitment to environmental sustainability and public safety, particularly within markets and around business facilities, stressing that the goal was to ensure all markets in Lagos State, followed laid down environmental rules, resulting in a safer and healthier business environment for buyers and sellers.

Gbadegesin urged the traders to support the efforts of the state government by adhering strictly to the environmental laws, as markets that runs foul risked indefinite closure.

Good.

Let's all cooperate with the Lagos State Government to keep our city and whole state clean and safe for business and living.
God bless LASG for this great job.

No oh, they should have left it closed down.

By the time their vehicles break down and they can't source cheaper parts they will import new oem ones or be stealing it from other parked working vehicles in yards or on the streets.

Smh. So you think cars have been breaking down on Lagos roads all these days? You just don't get it and it's a pity.

LASG can even send all of them packing permanently and that's it. With comments like this, I will not be surprised when that day come. The place is not even meant for a market and there are tonnes of petitions calling for the relocation of that market elsewhere in the far outskirts of Lagos.

All these kind of insults from Igbo like you will only stop when we implement the law of reciprocity as advocated here LAGOS GUBER & PLIGHT OF IGBO: Law Of Reciprocity Is The Solution

How many Yoruba-dominated markets are in your own Igbo state? There's none. So give the Yoruba in your state such opportunities too so that Igbo in Ladipo will appreciate the need to keep and maintain the environment here in Yorubaland because they will not want to lose the Yoruba market in Igboland. This current system where you keep all your own and take of other people's resources is unjust and unsustainable.

You have your own resources in Igboland that you can give in exchange for same opportunities you enjoy in Yorubaland. When you give others same opportunities in your Igboland to the Yoruba then we collaborate by reciprocity. Nobody will feel cheated.
