Published by

For environmental infractions, the Lagos State Government has ordered the immediate closure of popular Mandilas Market on Lagos Island for two days.

The order is to allow for the removal of illegal make-shift structures erected on road setbacks within and around the market environment.

The closure notice was issued on Saturday during a joint inspection and enforcement exercise by the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA).

The enforcement exercise followed the expiration of the 14-day self-removal notice earlier given by the state government to the traders.

Traders were asked to remove their wares and shops from the roads, especially around Mandalas on Lagos Island.

The enforcement team was led by the Special Adviser eGIS and Urban Development, Dr Olajide Babatunde, his colleague in charge of Central Business District, Bola Olumegbon-Lawal, the Permanent Secretary Office of Urban Development, Nurudeen Sodehinde and the General Manager of LASBCA, Gbolahan Oki.
