"According to our constitution , I can choose anybody from any local government in the state to head the market , all the iyaloja and babaloja in all the Lagos markets are my representatives in the market where they operate. Kindly educate them that phones , handsets , computers are commodities.

“ They cannot tell us they are not pepper sellers, everybody cannot be textile dealers ; they can ’t tell us that computer village will be exonerated from other markets . We have the right to choose for them Iyaloja and Babaloja.

“ Those people protesting never approached me to complain . They don ’t have the initiative that the person leading the protest has finished his tenure and wants to remain in power…

“ Computer village is not just an ICT hub , there are a lot of commodities being sold there ; nobody can say it is wrong to select a babaloja and iyaloja for the market . Those that have been selected were not selected because they are Yoruba , in some of our markets in Lagos we have Igbos that were selected as market leaders ,” Tinubu -Ojo said.
