The festering condition of the Ladipo auto spare parts market has been of huge concern for a long time to residents and visitors to Lagos, the nation’s economic capital. Although the Lagos State government has the primary responsibility, the problem exemplifies an audacity of anarchy in the three tiers of government that should be held responsible, in this regard.
Besides, the uncompleted part of Akinwunmi Road has been turned into a refuse dump while all adjoining streets are not accessible because the junctions stand much higher than the excavated but unfilled half. In the same vein, unsightly stalls have been placed at all these junctions. Incensed by the environmental degradation and the potential health danger of epidemic proportions, the Lagos State Waste Management Agency threatened to shut down the market.
It is noteworthy that the Lagos State Government had attempted several times to relocate the market. However, we cannot soon forget the relocation of other markets in the past. The Electronics Market in Mile 2 was moved to the present Alaba site and a prospering city sprung up in the erstwhile rural setting. Years ago, the market for rams was moved from Ijora to Mile 12 Ikorodu road and now is at the north landing of Isheri Bridge on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
