LAGOS – Exhibitors and visitors at the ongoing 28th Lagos International Trade Fair on Saturday lauded the Police and the Lagos State Management Authority (LASTMA) for efficient traffic control around the fair ground.
The fair is taking place at the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Lagos.
Unlike the 2013 edition, Police and LASTMA officials ensured free flow of vehicular movement in the adjourning streets to the fair ground.
Dr Michael Olawale-Cole, Chairman, Trade Promotion Board, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) said that adequate measures had been put in place to avoid hitches.
He said that adequate infrastructure and manpower such as enough sanitary personnel had been employed to ensure a memorable trade fair.
A LASTMA official, who spoke on anonymity, said that the organisers had recruited many security officials to ensure free flow of traffic and safety of people.
Mr Joseph Ebelima, Director, Joemecs Cosmetics, an exhibitor, said that it was not difficult entering into the fair venue.
”Although, today is the second day of the trade fair, one needs to praise the organisers for the strategies put in place,” Ebelima said.
The fair, which started on Nov. 7 will end on Nov. 16. (NAN)
