How do we explain the continued and excessive pressure market traders and market developers are receiving from Iya Oloja General of Lagos State, Chief (Mrs) Folasade Tinubu-Ojo?
It’s been a horrifying, sad story since she took on that role after her grandmother died.
Their activities have hampered the operation of the Lagos market.
Several undercuts were orchestrated by her office.
She has repeatedly dragged the revered traditional office into the dirt.
Investors should be applauded for their interest in funding the redevelopment of most Lagos markets rather than being intimidated by the influence of their father, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
She has at various times managed to harass most of the local government executives.
We know on good authority that she is on the payroll of every local government and council development area in Lagos State.
She receives an undisclosed monthly allocation from the Lagos State Government to cater for all Iya Olojas in the various local government councils.
Unfortunately, she doesn’t perform this task; rather, she has made these Iya Olojas her puppets.
Her objectionable behavior is also one of the main reasons why some sections of the indigenous Lagosians are vehemently opposed to supporting their father’s presidential ambitions in the state of Lagos.
Her reign as Iya Oloja, General of Lagos State, is a complete departure from the peaceful tenure of Alhaja Abibatu Mogaji.
Why won’t the newly developed markets in Lagos State be out of the reach of the people when Chief Folasade Tinubu-Ojo forcibly collects a huge undisclosed amount of money from investors including no fewer than twenty (20) shops in the new markets.
It is the main reason why most redeveloped markets are completely beyond the reach of former owners.
All efforts to reach her to confirm whether she had in fact collected the undisclosed amount from investors at the time of filing this report have failed.
It’s time she let reason and logic prevail in her behavior, at least in the interest of ordinary people in Lagos State.
Normally, one would have expected a total softening of her demeanor, at least in the interest of her father’s presidential ambitions.
She has too many antics and is truly bleeding the state of Lagos dry undeservedly.
