My dear Beremx. More than 5 markets have been shut down. In fact, Jankara market dominated by Yorubas was demolished. There were no cries of marginalization then.
So, this senseless cry no make sense.
Lagos listed offences. Why not rebutt the offences instead of crying foolishly?
Give ultimatums first before they take action. Ojo Alaba market remains one of the neatest market in Lagos. Tell your insensitive Lagos government to go close down Alaba Rago where northerners have turned that place to a filthy slum.

What have you contributed in lagos Olaniyi??


You abandoned your ekiti village to come and constitute nuisance in lagos and have the audacity to talk down on people doing legitimate business, paying tax and contributing to lagos state development.

You must be very very stewpid
u are the steewpid one here chinedu

U igbos believe the same thing that applies in your region applies elsewhere where a man from abia can’t b anything in anambra or where a priest from another state can’t head in your state

See every Yoruba person has equal right in Lagos n they can b anything in lagos

No wonder u igbos are killed like fowl everywhere u go, it’s a problem for u to respect your host

Imagine the fuuuul killed by Chinese in Philippines

The enemies of progress that will want Lagos to be as dirty as their state will soon start shouting witch haunting. I love the way Lagos is cleaning up itself.

The current commissioner of environment and water resources is doing an excellent work. By the time this tenure is ended, Lagos will be beautiful, clean and noiseless. If you want the opposite of what lagos is doing then go back to your state. Lagos must be thoroughly clean.

Lagos the New York of Nigeria and its loading...

Some of you allow your tribalism and foolishness blind your sense of proper reasoning. You think those markets are owned by a particular tribe, stupidly ignoring the fact that most properties in those markets are owned by Nigerians of different tribes and religious beliefs.

You leave the substance and chase the shadow. How have the streets, inner roads and drainages become better? Between the markets and other parts of the city, which is dirtier? With all that government does, with plenty of braggadocio, will the enforce? The same state government officials will subvert the efforts.

Go to the streets of Okokomaiko, Amukoko, Agege, Lagos mainland as a whole, Sangotedo, etc and tell us how they are better than the markets. Are the streets inhabited by only one section of the country?

If Lagos will be “beautiful, clean and noiseless”, people like you should relocate to your respective communities you are not from Lagos. You can also do well to proudly show us images of your own state and communities.

I hope the Lagos state government realizes that shutting down markets and commerce centers are not decision that should be taken lightly considering the impact on the citizens and the economy of the city and state.

Decisions like these should be driven by the need to solve identified issues as mutual partners, not driven by desire to flex power and authority.

It seems Governor Sanwo Olu wants to sabotage APC from winning any election in Lagos come 2027. Either he wants Tinubu to lose Lagos or he is planning to use a battalion of thugs to prevent anyone from voting. Maybe they intend to just write the figures the next time around in Lagos elections.

The truth is if you are into waste management in this Lagos you will know all these actions are justified.

All these markets have been engaged in dialougue over time yet no change.

My own is residents not paying for their own individual flats wastes should be next. Those pouring wastes when caught should be next.

Just listen to this uneducated fool.

I don't know why some Igbos are so stupid. Lagos actually wants you to go to Onitsha but you're too stupid to notice. If you go back to Onitsha, the electronic retail sector in Lagos will now be taken over by indigenes. Who loses?

I think you might be emotional too, can I say this, is it not the responsibility for teh tax collector to clean the public areas within and outsdie the market? Cos this seems to be the problem in NIgeria, you tax the people but dont carry out the job the tax is meant for. You cannot tell me all the traders in any market as big as that don't pay tax, so tell me what are they taxed for? Air to breath? Now the mkt is shut, what are they the tax collector doing about it?the rubbish within the market is not fully generated by the traders, dont forget you get visitors and customers as well, who travel from all part of Nigeria to buy there wholesale, this form part of the people who pay T fare within Lagos and eat there sometimes pay for hotels etc, So these lil Economy will seize for the days this mkt is shut. People do not seem to see the big picture.
