LAWMA shuts Oyingbo, Alayabiagba markets over filth | The Guardian Nigeria News

The Guardian gathered that Tejuosho Model Market Phase 1, Ladipo Market in Mushin, Anjorin Market, Irewolede Plank Market, Idi-Araba Obele Market, Oni Baba Market, Oba Morufu International Market, formerly known as Ejigbo Market, Ijora 7UP Market, Oke-Afa Plank Market, Ifelodun Fruit Market, Amukoko, among others, also risked imminent shut-down for improper waste disposal and sundry environmental infractions.

The law, he said, emphasised zero tolerance to environmental offences, such as indiscriminate dumping of refuse, willful defacing of the environment and refusal to pay for waste services. “However, some individuals and markets are busy undermining our efforts by refusing to abide by the laws and regulations. As the need arises, such individuals, dealers, and markets, will be dealt with, in accordance with the law.”
