Despite the directive of Lagos state Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode to shut the Mile 12 market after violence broken out on Thursday at Agiliti-Meidan area, traders were ready for business by the next day, Friday.
Nevertheless, Lawmaker representing Lagos East Senatorial district, Gbenga Ashafa, paid a visit to evaluate the extent of damage as well as the remote and immediate cause of the crisis.
Shock, fear, uncertainty, empty streets, heavy presence of law enforcement agents and residents unsure of what happens next is what you find as you walk through Agiliti-Meidan area of Mile 12, Lagos.
