The Lagos State Government has sealed Ladipo Spare Parts Market along the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Road (Apapa–Oshodi Expressway) over repeated environmental violations.
The closure was announced by the state Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) handle on Sunday, February 7.
“Lagos State government, this morning, sealed Ladipo Spare Parts Market along Murtala Muhammed International Airport Road (Apapa–Oshodi Expressway) over repeated environmental infractions; indiscriminate refuse disposal on the median/highway and illegal street trading. #ZeroToleranceLagos,” Wahab wrote.
The market has faced similar shutdowns in the past due to the same environmental issues, highlighting ongoing concerns about waste management and street trading in the area.
