A trader told SaharaReporters that the market was shut down on Wednesday in protest against illegal levies. “The new chairman, however, because of complaints from traders over extortions and illegal levies from the thugs, asked them to stop the collection. He asked them to tell him the balance of the money paid to his predecessor so that he can pay them back but they refused.

"As we speak, the entire Alaba market is in turmoil. We are keeping vigilant so that the hoodlums will not come back to burn down the electronic section of the market," the trader who gave his name as Chinedu Ede told SaharaReporters.

Daylight robbery of Motorists, market people and residents in Lagos must STOP by followlasg using NURTW thugs to harass, extort and intimidate citizens...What is the function of FIRSNigeria and Lagos State Inland Revenue?

Lagos has to control the amount of jobless youths out there. They are the problem… don’t want to hustle but want to chop… it’s very bad

Tinubu has really built agberos in Lagos and he want to do same in Nigeria, impossible

That was the strategy. Send hoodlums to disturb those doing legitimate jobs. Then shut their market down. Very strategic planning of APC don't worry. This hoodlums will not stop here e go reach everybody

We need to come together and decide our we want to be government. Stop letting politicians continue to divide us. aboriginaldemocracy NigeriaAt62 wearefamily PeterObi4President2023

The traders do pay their tax and rent and you still want them to pay Agberos. That’s what you will experience when you want Lagos type of Government in the federal level.

bandagbero we don’t want them anymore they’re taking too much advantage

Request for money is too much

Is because of Agbero this union of a thing is too much please let the government put a stop to the people called agbero, anything you carry of do in alaba market they will ask for money even though you went to buy something yourself and ask aboki to carry to your car they will

More of the extortion will continue if u vote the head of Agbero into power... MC Oluomo will now be the national head of Agbero

This is the video when Landowners turns 2 tenants due to excessive agbaro activities.... D masses revolt.....

This is one of the intrigues to victimized a certain tribe of people

The solution of Nigeria is us,we should stop their electoral act and policies...getting PVC is a scam,we need a clearer performing system from the electorating to governancing and transitions.

Igbos support BiafraExit now with all you got . If you miss this opportunity you will regret it for the rest of your lives cos NIGERIA HATE YOU. BIAFRA IS YOUR HOPE.

Igbos fighting against BiafraNationNow I feel very sorry for you . This is just the beginning. You better wake up now and face the reality. Nigeria don't belong to you Igbos BiafraNationNow remains your only hope. The earlier you know this the better. Peter Obi is a fraud.

The is thy join us together so will can live without future for enemies....... UN give the people Referendum to have their freedom Stop killing our people What happon in 90s will never happon again. Enough is enough

It's sacrilegious to called that market international where hoodlums control the operation. Which saner foreigners will dare invest in such environment. Anyways Nigeria is a place where everything goes

More of this when Agbado Master becomes President. God forbid!

The hoodlums created by BAT. This is the same man Nigerians wants to vote. A sick mafia with no boundary let’s whether he’s going to win the election with all the stolen money he gave the northern states to win by all means. The northerners will shame him that’s guaranteed

Is time to go back to Igbo land this is too much

Long overdue, enough of unnecessary unending extortion,

Tip of the ice berg

Best state in APC

Why can't south Eastern leaders be sensible and dredge the River Niger. Let these businesses be in the East and we leave Lagos for these touts

Lagos that Tinubu built, empowering criminals.....

Why should one pay fees to a non governmental agent or agberos

Lagos state government should realise that they're getting huge revenue from the Igbo traders across the state. Those igbo traders are beneficiaries to Nigeria people and Africa in general.

No one has monopoly of violence

Supporters of Tinubu.

That's the only place they are strong. reaping where you didn't sow

K km

I like this headline

pikaso_me screenshot this

You’re so biased with your report no wonder you’re less relevant. Your candidate can never smell the presidential seat . He should contest for NUNS I bet he got a great chance due to his record of been a once SUG president

Tinubu and his area boys

Why must every part of our country be feed with crisis?

An opportunity to relocate Alaba International Market to S/E. Enough of this nonsense.

Agbero beware.Igbo can return back a bullet for a bullet.

I am not too sure, if Nigerian universities are after quality education or they are not collaborating with FG to sabotage the standard of education. How can you go on eight months holiday and ask students to resume for exams. Well, students of nowadays......

And somebody will tell me that sanwo olu is working.

Hoodlums are Tinubu boys and they don't have job but depend on Igbo traders in Lagos to feed them but now they want to increase the money traders are given them for help by force but it's not possible...

Abuja residence sha una see watin they de do for Lagos.

BAT boys run hide wen them see men today 🤣🤣

That is how Bakassi started in Ariaria international market Aba

This same Tribal-sedated mindset na im we dey even carry come abroad. Celebrating Failure since Eternity. Continue!

Tinubu Lagos 🤣🤣🤣

I smell a rat.... Very strategic plan to cajole the traders to vote a single candidate ahead of 2023 election. Otherwise, their shops shall remain closed. Nigeria be like bicycle... Always rolling...

Alaba Int'l Market has been peaceful and habitable for business until the selfish ones among them in Electronics sold their votes and elected incompetent leaders recently. Go and verify! This is why people should vote wisely in the next general elections

Alaba international market boys are very fierce guys to go fight with, certainly it will be bloody .

This kind of levy Agbero in Anambra are collecting daily form traders

Emilokan people

Apc people no go post this one oo but if na obi now them go carry am for head like person wey Dey sell puff puff

Agboros should go and work! Lazy folks claiming superman whereas their future is in jeopardy!

Traders in Alaba international market should start to plan on how to build their own market and leave that area... NdigboTweets
