DEATH TRAPS ALL OVER LAGOS





Manholes like this one are found all over Lagos
Properly closed manhole












Open manholes like this are death traps in Lagos. I happen to witness a scene where a man who alighted from a bus at Ojota fell into one of them. It was in the night and the man just lost his balance and fell into it. He not only lost consciousness but had a broken skull and rib. His clothes were socked in his own blood. This is owing to the cut he had on his head.

IGBOS PROTEST OPPRESSION BY LAGOS STATE GOVT







Igbos Protesting in Lagos


Accept Him as Your Leader or Leave Lagos - Lagos Govt.

"We told him that we have been in existence for over 30 years and don’t understand the meaning of Baba Oloja". 

The crisis rocking the leadership of Ladipo Auto Spare Parts Market, Mushin, took a new dimension on Thursday as the executive members of Ladipo Central Executive Auto Dealers Association and some of its members took to the streets protesting the imposition of Alhaji Oladotun Abibu Oki as the Babaloja of the market.


Out of the 38 existing units in the market, the Igbo traders the controls 37 units while Alhaji Oki only control a unit.
 

It is a known fact that 99% of marketers in Ladipo are Igbo. To be fair to all, Oki should come and contest if elected he will be accepted.
