Lagos Court Stops Tinubu's Daughter From Levying Computer Village Traders by dumahi(m): 2:28pm On Feb 27, 2021
A Lagos State High Court has barred Folasade Tinubu-Ojo, the daughter of All Progressives Congress leader, Bola Tinubu, from imposing levies on traders at the Computer Village, Lagos.

The development comes over a year after Tinubu-Ojo, who is also the Iyaloja-General of Lagos State, reportedly imposed leaders on the traders who then introduced new levies, a development which sparked a series of protests at the Computer Village.

Others who were similarly barred from imposing levies include Mrs. Bisola Azeez, Mr. Adeniyi Olasoji, Nofiu Akinsanya, Tony Ikani and the Commissioner of Police in Lagos State.

The order is sequel to a fundamental human rights suit marked ID/9039MFHR/19 instituted against the five respondents by the five major stakeholders representing the traders at the Computer Village, Punch reports.

The stakeholders representing the traders include The Registered Trustees of Computer and Allied Products Dealers Association of Nigeria; Registered Trustees of Phone and Allied Product Dealers Association of Nigeria; and Registered Trustees of Phone Parts and Accessories Dealers Association of Nigeria.

Other applicants include the Registered Trustees of Association of Caterers, Food and Drinks Vendors of Ogunbiyi Computer Village, Ikeja, Lagos; Registered Trustees of Ikeja Books, Stationeries and Computer Association and Azeez Olunrin.

The judgment, which Justice Yetunde Pinheiro delivered, read in part, “I find that the 2nd and 3rd respondents’ imposition of levies on the applicants is illegal, null and void and therefore amounts to a violation of their fundamental rights.

“Accordingly, it is hereby ordered as thus: The first to fifth respondents by themselves, agents, levy collectors howsoever called are restrained from imposing levies and fines on the members of the 1st to 5th applicants at the Ikeja Computer Village in the Ikeja Local Government Area of Lagos State.”

In a letter titled, ‘Dear members, Our Court Victory against Iyaloja and Babaloja and Others in Computer Village, Ikeja’, the Computer Village leadership rejoiced over the judgment.

Other market associations ... over to you.
Bullies thrive because victims are scared to challenge them.
The tyranny of some local thieves mascurading as leaders and whatsover name or titles they bear should be challenged in law courts. This is 2021 and not 1990s.

Similarly, someone composed a song entitled "BROWN-TEETH PRESIDENT" with full lyrics and voice.

grin grin This greedy drug addict and his family can't even manage Lagos yet he has ambitions of leading the country. A selfish power-obsessed wicked bastardd that sent soldiers to kill his people in Lekki because of his greed, A cretin that has kept quiet as his people are being slaughtered by herdsmen in their villages because he doesn't want to offend his masters.
Such an idiot can never lead the country, we can't jump from having a brainless dullard into having a selfish slowpoke.
The only thing he should be worried about is seeing a dentist to take care of this...
