  • Says the move was part of intensified efforts to ensure adherence to environmental cleanliness across registered markets in the state

The Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps, LAGESC, also known as KAI has sealed off Idera Market, located in the Oshodi area of the state for violating environmental laws.

This was made known by the Corps Marshal Major Olaniyi Cole, rtd, on Thursday.

He said the move was part of intensified efforts to ensure adherence to environmental cleanliness across registered markets in the state.

According to Cole, ‘‘Our operatives stationed across the Oshodi division during routine market monitoring identified the filth, unhygienic practices and indiscriminate dumping of refuse around the Idera Market area which prompted us to seal off the market until further notice’.”

He decried the unimpressive level of hygiene at the market which he described as capable of causing illnesses and disease outbreaks to market vendors and buyers alike.

“Markets must imbibe hygienic practices to prevent the spread of diseases,” Oke stressed.

He also highlighted how the market leadership was unable to provide a valid waste collection contract, citing the infraction as the lead cause of refuse heaps in the market.

The KAI boss also warned other markets across the state to maintain an acceptable level of hygiene as KAI operatives will constantly monitor market environments for contraventions.

He warned that any market found erring will be sealed off until total compliance is achieved.
