<p><strong>The <a href="http://Openlife.ng">Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA)</a> said that, from next Thursday, both <a href="http://Openlife.ng">Ladipo</a> and <a href="http://Openlife.ng">Oyingbo</a> markets would be shut down till further notice. </strong></p>
<p>This is as a result of reckless waste dumping, refusal to pay for waste services, and general poor waste management situation at the markets.</p>
<p>LAWMA’s Managing Director/CEO, Mr. Ibrahim Odumboni, noted that the unwholesome environmental practices by traders in those markets, despite repeated warnings, called for necessary and immediate sanctions.</p>
<p>He said: <em><strong>“Our attention has been drawn to the deplorable state of the environment around Ladipo Market, Mushin and Oyingbo Market, resulting from reckless waste dumping by traders.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong> “Despite serving them abatement notices, they have continued the mindless environmental violation. </strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>&#8220;We are left with no other choice than to evoke the necessary sanction of shutting down the markets. This is also meant to serve as a deterrent to other nonchalant markets.”</strong></em></p>

<p>He said that the authority had, in recent times, redoubled its efforts to ensure that business activities in all Lagos markets were carried out in a clean and safe environment, for the good of all.</p>
<p>Odumboni noted further that: <em><strong>“We have intensified our sanitation efforts by deploying trucks to clear black spots across the metropolis, especially business facilities. </strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>“However, these efforts are being tainted by the activities of mischievous persons who would rather dump their waste indiscriminately on the roads, than pay for waste services.”</strong></em></p>
<p>He urged traders in other markets to adhere strictly to environmental hygiene or risk indefinite closure of their markets. Read more:</p>
