billante: GEJ supporters says its FG project! ACN supporters says its Fashola project.....who we go believe now

D-secret:
.Eko Ile i think u ar wrong on dis one.There is nothing wrong with criticism but when somebody has done a good job we should give it (honor)to him.GEJ deserves credit on dis one.I really want GEJ to succeed,though his performance av not been that encouraging cos there is still alot dats needs to b done.My bottom line is CRITICIZE him when he z nt getin it right and COMMEND him when he z getin it right.

GARRI (x7):
...And who's stopping you from celebrating the visit??

...If you find it worth celebrating why not celebrate??

...Or do you expect other people to come and celebrate your Governor for you??

...If you see no reason to be happy about the visit(b'cos the Governor is‎​ a failure), then shut the hell up and stop complaining about people who enjoy celebrating their performing Governor!!

shymexx: You're the ignorant one, to be honest... Why compare a Lagos with the UK, even if the present ratings of the Lagos is higher than the UK?? Do the two places even belong in the same sentence Just take a looking at the GDP, spending etc.. If Fashola isn't ignorant, he would have compared like to like...

Comparing Lagos to the UK is like comparing Switzerland's/Luxembourg's economy to America's economy... No matter how messed up the American economy is with any type of ratings lower than that of Switzerland - there will never be any basis for comparisons....

Why didn't he compare Lagos' economy to the City of London's(not the whole London) economy??

van bonattel: Lagos is improving, thanks to Ndigbo.

ROSSIKE: No. They've accepted that they are oppressed by a state govt that abdicated its responsibility, and they have no choice but to comply with their oppression, by offering to do the work that the govt is paid to do.

PAPA AFRICA: then what can be done to stop it?

PAPA AFRICA: these are people, no?!

ROSSIKE: You must be one of the local govt thieves who sit on their fat asses collecting taxes and expecting the traders to do the jobs THEY were elected to do. Go around the world and show us where ordinary citizens are responsible for ''removing abandoned vehicles and sweeping their streets'', as opposed to that being a BASIC local govt function. When exposed people try to educate you on how things are done, you prefer to remain in the bush. Tragic.

In his response, President, Ladipo Auto Centre Executive Committee (LACEC), Iyke Animalu, assured the governor of the union’s and traders’ readiness to comply with the relevant directives towards immediate evacuation and disposal of refuse and removal of whatever might impede free flow of traffic on the roads, so as to have the market reopened.

“The union will do whatever it takes to ensure that it does not disappoint the governor and make sure the market is made a business-friendly environment for traders and customers”, he assured.

It will no longer be business as usual. The old ways cannot continue. Those responsible have seen where their error lies, and I hope they are ready to adjust so that business can continue.”

ROSSIKE: I'll just put this down to your low IQ.

ROSSIKE: The traders are NOT supposed to ''sort out waste management issues with LAWMA''

LAWMA is supposed to ''sort out waste management issues with the traders''.

Big difference.

It is also NOT the traders' duty to ''remove derelict and abandoned vehicles from the road'' etc etc. THAT'S the job of the local govt.

ROSSIKE: It is precisely because of the ABSENCE of a daily cleaning regime, which ought to be organised by the govt, that the trash built up to that level. It didn't get that way in one day. Use your brain and stop thinking like a fcking ret.ard.

ROSSIKE: This is all the govt needs to do. Get local cleaning firms to clean up the place every evening, and levy the traders. The traders shouldn't even have to be involved in the process. Theirs is just to pay their levies. Finish. Instead the govt is making it out to be the traders' fault that the market is dirty. Absolutely ridiculous. The problem is poor local govt organisation and ineptitude.

He said under no condition must they trade or solicit for customers on the main road, they "must remove all shops attachments built round the market/canals, remove all derelict and abandoned vehicles packed within the market as far as the expressway, remediate all forms of degradation on the roads and market area, sort out waste management issues with LAWMA as they cannot continue to dump into the canals, ensure total cleaning of the entire market and adjoining streets which they have degraded, among others.

ROSSIKE: How will it not be pointless to a backward thinking person like you that expects traders to ''pick up their brooms and sweep the market''.

Bush man.

Dede1: Did I not inform you the issue of Ladipo Market does not predicate on broom and sweeping, olodo?

Dede1: The above post shows you have no business in this discussion. What is broom and sweeping got to do with a market such as Ladipo Market?

At this instance, Bello said the state government ordered the closure of Ladipo Market after several meetings and warnings with the market leadership and traders about the deteriorating state of the market.

At this instance, Bello said the state government ordered the closure of Ladipo Market after several meetings and warnings with the market leadership and traders about the deteriorating state of the market.

He added that the environment "is seriously polluted and degraded with oil; surrounding canals are dumped with full and half engines spare parts and human waste, while illegal structures were built along drainage path and all the canal setbacks have been turned to shops and trading points.

"A visit to the place shows street traders have taken over the inlet and outlet to the market. Residents petitioned the state government about lack of access to their homes and property. These traders have degraded all the major access roads to the market which needs remediation rehabilitation," he stressed.

Bello, however, gave some of the conditions, which the commissioners explained, might warrant re-opening of the market included: complete removal of all illegal structures and attached structures built along canal paths and that traders must be confined to the main markets.

Dede1: There is not an issue of absolving party and indicting another, It is issue of shared responsibilities. If the Local Government that owned and operated the Ladipo Market did not provide the amenities to cater for the environmental eyesore everybody knows such entity like Ladipo will generate, it is humanly and morally wrong for the Fashola government of Lagos State to treat the traders as culprits in this matter. What has the Lagos State government of Fashola done to solve the environmental problems of Ladipo Market?

Badcoin: Whose responsibilities is it to dispose after you clean? This is where the government is failing mightily.

seanet02: ACN wicked no be small o.
Are they trying to say Gej don't have two balls

Bliss4Lyfe: Y do the traders pay tax? Local gov should stop sharing money and start working.

Traders will not wait forever for the local gov to clean the market.

Life most continue and families must to chop.

babyosisi: Most of us here were not evicted by Fashola and have no dog in the fight
