A video suggesting that market women in Lagos are being coerced by some men under the authority of Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, the Iyaloja of Lagos, to attend a campaign rally for her father, Bola Tinubu, has surfaced online.

This is amid claims on social media platforms that women are being forced to close their shops to go march for Tinubu in Lagos.

In the now-viral video, a man guarding the entrance of a yet-to-be-identified market was telling a market woman that everyone had to pay N500 before they were allowed to gain entrance to the market.

He also told the woman that after they paid, they would go to Alausa the following day for a political rally.

When the market woman asked the man what they were going to do at Alausa, he told her that the last time a bell was rung, she did not show up.

The man said that whenever the bell was rung, the market women must show up and ask for what would be said because where they were is a market.

The man said that Folashade Tinubu-Ojo had mandated that each market in Lagos pay a certain amount as a levy, and after paying, 20 volunteers from each market in Lagos would join her team for the rally to be held the next day in Alausa.

A Twitter user identified as Esteem said, “Women are being threatened with having their shop spaces revoked should they fail to comply with the order. Majority of them have been massively induced monetarily.”
