RED CARD! Lagos to kick traders out of Festac Gates
Lagos State Commissioner for Local Government and Community Affairs, Hon. Musiliu Folami said the present location of the markets at Gates 1, 2, and 3 is illegal and causes gridlock which is not befitting of an international road.
According to him, the markets “cause gridlock, the hoodlums hide guns there and they sleep there, you don’t know it, but intelligence report says they are there. We don’t want to see something that is dangerous to you and overlook it because this is our government and we are concerned about your safety. Boko Haram are moving over to this area from the North East and we don’t want what is happening there to happen here.”.
