“We are appealing to the Lagos State government to ensure that all trading activities under the bridges in the state must, as a matter of urgency, be brought to a stop.
“We seek the cooperation of the Ministry of Transportation, Environment, and Local Government law enforcement agencies to help us preserve our bridges.” Speaking also, the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr. Olufemi Hamzat, warned the citizens to desist from doing business under the bridge and live the right way for the interest of others.
According to him, the State government is willing to support in any way that will ensure quick compliance by citizens to stop the illegal use of the under bridges. “The State Government will be available to monitor the process and provide assistance where necessary to ensure that the contractor has a smooth operation.
