The Lagos State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tunji Bello, has ordered all street traders, commercial drivers and squatters to vacate the outer Marina area. He also threatened to prosecute whoever fails to adhere to the directive while disclosing plans by the state government to commence work on the beautification and landscaping of the area. The commissioner said in a statement that operatives of the State Task Force on Environmental and Special Offences Unit would from next week move to the area to enforce the law.

He urged all commercial vehicle operators in the area to move to the designated parks, warning them against picking passengers along the road. He also urged pedestrians to use the overhead bridge, saying defaulters would be arrested. “The State Task Force on Environment will soon move to Ikoyi and Victoria Island to clean up the area by ridding it of all environmental nuisances, hawkers and street traders among others,” he said.

Same should applied to motorists and commuters in Apapa

Good but make una complete the light rail project first at least to ease traffic

Very good!

The state government is doing the right thing but this will create more criminals.....they should relocate to other state

Hmmm

Many have made enough in Lagos to settle somewhere else.

Odiegwu

Good one jare.

Lagos is more like one bedroom apartment with 50 persons living inside, there won't be breathing space.

If only every other state could develop and have strong economy like Lagos to decongest the state.

Wherever you go to within Lagos state ,you see people in the evening trooping home like everyone is running back to the village during the war time.

Good move

nawa ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Long over due.
The entire marina and cms is usually messed up always.

Do you know Lagos, or what Marina look like?
You people should stop sounding like fools, Lagos need total cleansing, all streets in Lagos are markets and car parks.

When will this start on the Mainland

Glorified jungle

Biafra is the answer

and Na so I take type wrong comment for wrong thread.

Let's be factual and unbiased.

I see a Lagos that is working# Even though there are some lapses, Lagos state is improving.

God bless those who are working hard to make this work, irrespective of their political parties...

It is the responsibility of government to create the next hub to decongest Lagos state by building solid infrastructures and business support facilities that will force people to leave Lagos to other states.


Take a look at Apapa, Tincan area, the government ought to have declared an emergency on the issue of Apapa seaport.

Get other seaports outside Lagos working fully at all cost.


Create seaports in Ondo, Anambra and connect them by rail with Lagos, Portharcourt and Abuja. Help other states develop so industries can naturally relocate their factories to those other states and watch people naturally leave Lagos for good.


Nigerian government seem not to be ready to put Nigeria on roadmap to national prosperity
