Ladipo spare-parts market re-opened
THE Executive Chairman of Mushin Local Council, Mr. Olatunde Adepitan, has announced the re-opening of Ladipo Spare-part Market after three days of closure.
The closure of the market was announced on Sunday during inspection by the chairman.
According to the chairman, the traders had reneged in the agreement they signed with the local council concerning, street -trading, construction of shanties on the drains, refuse clearance and blockage of major roads.
The chairman stated that the members of the Ladipo Autocental Executive Committee (LACEC), in collaboration with all the other associations within the market, should ensure that the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) they signed with the council are strictly adhered to.
The chairman said that it was against the natural law of justice for a few traders to block a major road that links the council to the expressway, just to satisfy their own selfish desires.
He commended the traders for their understanding and maturity during the closure, thanking God that no life was lost during the exercise and no mishap was recorded during the operation.
