JUST IN: Sanwo-Olu’s Government Shuts Another Three Markets In Lagos
The Lagos State Government under Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has sealed Oke-Afa Market, Isolo Market, and Katangua Market in Abule Egba for violations of waste disposal regulations and for various unhygienic practices around the markets, constituting grave environmental infractions.
Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab who confirmed the development said this step was in a bid to curb mounting environmental health concerns.
He stressed that the government’s zero tolerance for waste initiative, which started last year, was still on course and also vowed that any market or facility engaging in reckless waste disposal would be sanctioned.
