In a swift response to concerns, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has ordered the reopening of Ile-Epo Market in Agada Oke Odo LCDA. The market was shut down due to environmental and sanitation issues.
Following assurances from the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) boss, Muyiwa Gbadegesin, that the market leaders would maintain a clean environment, Sanwo-Olu instructed the reopening of the market.
Gbadegesin visited the market this morning, engaging with traders and leaders to ensure their commitment to keeping the market clean. The traders expressed excitement and gratitude, promising to maintain a clean and healthy environment.
The reopening of Ile-Epo Market is a testament to Sanwo-Olu’s commitment to listening to the concerns of Lagosians and finding solutions to issues affecting them. The market’s reopening is expected to boost economic activities and improve the livelihoods of traders and residents in the area.
