The Lagos State Government has shut down the Itedo Market in Lekki indefinitely for repeated environmental violations and illegal roadside trading.
“This morning, we took decisive action at Itedo Market, Lekki, which has now been shut down indefinitely due to repeated environmental violations and illegal roadside trading,” Mr Wahab said.
“Lagos will not tolerate disregard for environmental regulations or unauthorised street trading.
The Lagos State Government began full enforcement of its single-use plastics ban in July, warning that shops or outlets caught selling or storing prohibited materials risk being sealed and prosecuted.
PREMIUM TIMES reached out to both Mr Wahab and the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) for further comment.
