Why we’ve not reopened Ladipo Market – Lagos govt
The Lagos State Government says Ladipo Market has not been reopened.
Unlike other shut markets reopened on Monday morning, the state government said the Ladipo market would remain close until they perfect some environmental and safety conditions, required before recommencing business activities.
Managing Director of Lagos Waste Management Authority, LAWMA, Dr Muyiwa Gbadegesin, made the clarification on Monday.
He said the market remained closed because it observed that its management had not fully met stipulated mandatory safety and environmental measures earlier outlined by the authority.
He said, “Our primary concern is the safety of the people and environmental well-being at marketplaces.
“Reopening is contingent upon strict adherence to the safety conditions set forth by LAWMA. It is imperative that all necessary precautions are taken to prevent any potential risks.”
He added that while several markets had successfully met the outlined safety requirements and had been permitted to resume business, Ladipo Market would also be reopened to business activities, once it passed the requisite safety audit.
Some of the reopened markets include: Oyingbo, Ile Epo Oke-Odo and Alamutu in different parts of the state.
