In day 2 of it’s enforcement, the Lagos state government is clearing all shanties and illegal shops located within the Mandilas market area.
This, the government said, is to give way for access roads for emergency responders to access whenever there is an incident.
Recall that a fire incident engulfed the second and seventh floor in Mandilas, destroying goods and property worth millions of naira.
Emergency responders had a hard time getting into the market to quench the fire on time.
Several stores and shops were subsequently sealed to allow emergency responders to gain entrance into the affected building.
