As part of efforts to ensure sanity within the Lagos Island Business District, the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Central Business Districts, Mr. Sola Giwa, on Thursday, led officials to dislodge vehicle owners and street traders obstructing the free flow of traffic in the district.

Giwa, speaking during the operation, said the State government has run out of patience with street traders and motorists parking illegally and disturbing the free flow of vehicular movement along the axis, especially on Nnamdi Azikiwe, Idumota outward and inward, Idumagbo/Dosumu, Ereko, Martins, Alli Balogun, Akanni and Broad Streets.

In his words, “The exercise, which is a continuous one, is to restore sanity and glory of the business district and allow for the free flow of human and vehicular movement within the Business District”.

While warning vehicle owners parking illegally on the roads and streets traders to desist henceforth, the Senior Special Assistant, admonished shop owners extending their wares to walkways and drainage alignments to remove them immediately.
