The Lagos State government has sealed up the Mile 12 International Market and Owode Onirin Market over non-compliance with environmental laws.
This was disclosed by Senior Special Assistant on New Media to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Jubril Gawat, on his X handle on Friday.
“Acting on the directives of Commissioner for Environment, Mr Tokunbo Wahab, enforcement operatives from LAWMA and KAI, in a joint operation in the early hours of Friday, October 13, sealed up the Mile 12 International Market and Owode Onirin Market along Ikorodu Road in Kosofe LG.”
Gawat explained that the decision to seal up the markets is due to indiscriminate dumping and burning of refuse, filthy environment, blocked and littered drainages.
