A popular building materials market located in Lugbe, a satellite town in Abuja, has been demolished by the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA).
The FCDA demolition team, which stormed the market on Monday, August 7. 2023, came with a combined team of security agents.
The market, which houses an assortment of businesses, sits under electricity transmission lines.
Stall owners were seen scampering to save their wares from the approaching bulldozers brought by the FCDA demolition team to bring down the market.
It was gathered that traders at the market have been given notices in times past but chose to neglect them.
