The Anambra State Government sealed another popular market on Monday, March 2, over traders’ refusal to open their stores as they obeyed the sit-at-home order.
The Nkwo-Ogbe market in Ihiala Local Government Area of the state was sealed by the state government and will remain shut for one week, the Chairman of Ihiala Local Government Council, Mr Anayochukwu Ojiako, confirmed.
Ojiako explained that this would send a warning. He added that the government had done everything within its disposal to end the Monday sit-at-home.
According to him, the Nkwo-Ogbe market is the only market that has blatantly refused to open for business activities on Mondays.
“Other markets like Nkwo-Okija, Uzoigwe market Ubahuekwem, Eke-Agbagba market Uli, Ogbo-Osisi market and a host of other markets opened for commercial activities every Monday except Nkwo-Ogbe market.
“The market leaders have done everything within their capacity to persuade the traders to commence Monday business transactions.
“But their pleas fell on deaf ears as traders refused even when he personally opened the market on Mondays,” he said.
