Bayo Onanuga, a former media aide to President Bola Tinubu, has accused certain individuals of politicizing and adding ethnic dimensions to the demolition of the Alaba International Market in Lagos State.
The Lagos State Government began the demolition of distressed buildings in the market last Friday, with the enforcement team of the Lagos State Building Control Agency and the Lagos State Task Force carrying out the exercise.
The team resealed several buildings marked with previous multiple quit seal notices by LASBCA to prevent disaster. The demolition has led to condemnations from affected traders and some Igbo groups.
“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.”
In his tweet, he said
