Isiguzoro’s remarks were prompted by a widely circulated online video depicting distressed Igbo traders at the Trinity spare parts market in Apapa, Lagos, on February 1, 2024. In the video, the traders lamented their inability to salvage goods and products in the face of a challenging situation.
Characterizing the scenario as distressing, Isiguzoro revealed that the organization is actively “documenting the systematic demolition of Igbo-populated markets in Lagos State,” and is closely monitoring the discernible pattern of these demolitions.
In a statement issued by the factional Secretary General of Ohanaeze, concerns were raised about the deployment of state machinery against peaceful Igbo traders in Lagos State. Isiguzoro asserted, “In light of these distressing events, Ndigbo must acknowledge that it is now time to gradually retreat and redirect their businesses back home.”
The factional Secretary General urged President Bola Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State to urgently intervene and prevent future demolitions. Isiguzoro emphasized, “The relentless targeting of Igbo traders and their businesses under the guise of development is unacceptable.”
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo implores Igbo traders to relocate the headquarters of their businesses to Igbo land to avoid further complications arising from future market demolitions. We fervently urge President Tinubu and the Governor of Lagos State to demonstrate true leadership by intervening decisively to protect the rights and interests of all citizens, regardless of their ethnic background.
