A former media aide to President Bola Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga,
has criticized those faulting the demolition of the Alaba International Market
in Lagos State.
Onanuga said some ethnic bigots are politicising and reading
ethnic dimensions to the demolition of the Alaba International Market.
Last Friday, the Lagos State Government began the process of
removing distressed buildings in the Alaba International Market in the Ojo
Local Government Area of the state.
The enforcement team of the Lagos State Building Control
Agency, LASBCA, and the Lagos State Task Force embarked on the joint exercise.
The team, which went around to re-seal several buildings
marked with previous multiple quit seal notices by LASBCA, said the measure was
to prevent disaster.
The demolition had drawn several condemnations from the
affected traders and some Igbo groups.
However, Onanuga tweeted: “Some closet ethnic bigots are
already politicising and reading ethnic dimension to the plan by Lagos
Government to demolish distressed buildings in Alaba Market in Lagos.
“Some are even teaching LASG how to conduct its business or
exercise its authority. What a country.”
