Lagos State Government shuts Oshodi Resettlement Market following an incident in which traders allegedly attacked officials of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps (LAGESC). Multiple outlets report that the attack occurs during an enforcement operation carried out by sanitation officials. In a statement made by the Lagos Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, the government orders the market’s closure. Wahab is quoted saying that “Oshodi Resettlement Market, Oshodi has been shut down,” linking the decision to the attack on sanitation officers. The reports describe the closure as part of the state’s response to the incident during the enforcement of sanitation rules. One outlet also references video footage related to the shutdown. Across the coverage, all accounts align that the shutdown is specifically tied to the alleged assault on LAGESC personnel at Oshodi Resettlement Market, and that the state government announces the closure through the commissioner’s official communications.
