Unfortunately, most of the tribalist inciting Igbo against Yoruba and vice versa do not have shops and investment in Lagos.

I honestly do not think and support that the market be closed without clear path to peace. The traders and RTEAN are both wrong in my opinion but OP is right that the traders have more to lose.
Please let us live together in peace and respect one another. All those hate filled bigotted ipob terrorist group members hating on Yoruba do not represent the Igbo race. True Igbo loves and respect their Yoruba host and same with a true Omoluabi.

Ipob terrorists do not represent the igbo. It was ipob terrorists and not Igbo as a race that burnt down Lagos

Dapson73:





I concur.

Invaders should know their boundaries or else, more of such markets will be closed in nearest future.

We will teach them a bitter lesson, we seems to be too accommodative.

From 2023, things will be redefined in Lagos.

Proves that despite the hairy chest beating, markets like Alaba have no bearing on lagos finances. Lagos can lock the place for six months without batting eyelids. We know the leaches that’ll suffer more tho. I implore the lasg to lock the market till late next year to teach flat heads lesson.

AroOkigbo:

How den will your agbero brothers feed?

BetterHeadline:
Tinubu supporters are now glorifying thuggery. The closure of the market shows they will always back thugs over hardworking people. Awolowo will be rolling in his grave. Thugs are now "The land owners" while hardworking people are "the tenants".

For your information, plenty of Yoruba traders also trade in Alaba, but according to Tinubu supporters they don't matter; they will only matter when they become agbero. Shameful. This is one of Tinubu's destructive legacies to Southwest. If you are Yoruba and hardworking, you don't matter: you are just a tenant. The only people who matter are the thugs who, according to Tinubu supporters, are your landlords. Tinubu and his supporters do not mean well for you.

In fact, they do not mean well for all of us. Think of the children.

Creamcrest:

Most agberos have side hustles so definitely they will go back there.

Nbote:
Reading comments of most of the morons above, you will understand why this country may neva get beta. Lagos state govt cannot do without a permanently locked Alaba market. Their goods are imported through the ports that the govt also benefit from. Agberos come to beg and shalaye for daily livelihood from those who do their businesses there.. It is only a daft that believes the govt will lock up the market for long

LeoDeKing:
Shut up.

We igbos own Lagos, Ogun, Oyo and Ekiti.

We also own Abuja, Kano, Kaduna and Benue.

We developed India, Singapore, Germany, Canada and Dubai.

all because they are not supporting tinubu if your candidate is good you don't need to force him down the throat of other tribes

Light78:

I only read and hear those hate speeches on nairaland and not in real life.

In a sane country, this thread would be locked and deleted. It is inciting violence.

Why are people evil nowadays?

They can actually. How much do you think you contribute to Lagos state? The whole of alaba cannot give Lagos what Dangote is giving them as tax.

Headachetoigboh:


I pray they lock it so my Igbo brothers will come back home. We have lot of land to develop.
You talk as if igbos leave Lagos,u can do the business.
Envy will never allow u see tomorrow

You are just suffering and smiling. Ethnicity can not put food on your table. Tribalism will not make your life better instead u will be suffering and smiling. Being the owners of lagos doe sit make your economic status better? Those people u are rejoicing that their shops were closed will still be living better than you for the next 5 years . You are poor and instead of fighting for a batter Nigeria u are fighting for God knows what.

There is a Rumour from insiders that it would be opened after Elections next year for the sake of Public Safety

Public Safety always comes first
People can use other Markets or order things online

Lagos government can't afford to lock that place for complete one week.
