OGBA TURN AROUND OVERNIGHT
Its really amazing, passersby are able to move freely without being insulted by market women, no blocked road, No buying and selling on the road. Where are the market women?
Ogba Ijaiye Bus-Stop which has always been a very busy road full of buying and selling has now change overnight that even passersby move freely without being assaulted by market women and i ask myself what has really happened? this is not the Ogba i use to know.
The popular sunday market has turned to everyday market and the market women at Ogba bus-stop now sell at the place.
Mrs Tiamiu Mogaji, one of the sellers now relocated to sunday market explained that ''there moving to sunday market is not in their own interest, it is the work of the Government(Tenament rate).I have been in this market for the past five hours and i have not sold to my satisfaction, but if am at ogba bus-stop,i would have made alot of profit without even stressing myself to call customers.
"What i do now is to tell my son to hawk the pepper while i stay in the market to see if a buyer will come and patronize me"
What baffles most is the shops that has been demolished, no single extention is left out at Ogba.The place now look differently unlike before and less stress for passersby.
I have never seen this kind of change before, what has the Government of Governor Babatunde Fashola caused havoc to the market women or positive change for Lagosians?
