Happens time and time again. These traders never learn. They will go and build the new computer village until they are chased away again

That is the second market for shoes and clothing

And these people voted for them.

In life nothing is constant so we move on

The Lagos State Government are unto something.

My thoughts though, before proceeding to demolish structures, there should be another structure already put in place where the affected folks are expected to move to.

I knew about the planned relocation even before April, 2017 during BRF tenure. Sometimes we need to comment on certain issues because if you don't share knowledge with the ignorant, the ignorant will share ignorance with you.

Where do this people want poor men to go?

jidesanwoolu and lagosstategov are out at it in full force. Sanwo and his crew should remember that they have maximum of 8years in office. Let it not be that the stone you're throwing now will hit someone dear to the heart sometimes after 8years. Calm down and take things easy.

Atleast get this every month fire outbreak controlled so that we can be able to differentiate between the intentional and natural outbreak..... Just thinking sha

That is the normal thing.... But Pls can it be possible for every Generator owner to have a fire extinguisher...am thinking that will help

Tell your governors to fix ya'll state. Go and hold them accountable. Is like Lagos is too crowded for her government. Not more an orphanage. To your tent oh non-Lagosians. IMO ohhh.

Nah wa ooooo.

Just when I thought Mr Ambode was the tyrant then boom here comes Mr Sanwo olu...the real deal!!!!!

This government is just throwing more hardship on its citizens. Koda na! Ah!

Lol reason for the fires! So they can build theirs and tax their slaves for their last penny.

Any notice before the demolition? Or is government doing what pleases them in the name of development?

They want to send people back to their villages They want to turn our lagos to only for the rich jidesanwoolu please consider the masses
