Abia Governor Pledges Cash Reward For Traders In Relief Market

 Abia state governor, Okezie Ikpeazu has pledged to give N5,000 cash to each first batch of petty traders dealing on perishable goods at new Relief Market.

The new Relief Market is situated at Amuzukwu in Umuahia North Local Government Area of Abia state capital.

 Ikpeazu added that other traders who would relocate to the market within the deadline of October 10, would also benefit from the governor’s largesse.

The governor said this while commissioning the ultra-modern Relief Market at Amuzukwu Ibeku. He named the market after himself.
 ”October 10 is the deadline for all traders dealing on perishable commodities to relocate to the market,”  Ikpeazu said.

He said with the commissioning of the market, perishable goods traders have no reason to expose their commodities on the floor at Isi Gate.

Emma Nwabuko, a commissioner- designate, said the market was equipped with modern facilities. He said only traders of perishable goods would be allocated shops there.

John Ibezim, the traditional ruler of Amuzukwu Ibeku, thanked the governor for siting the market at his Amuzukwu community.

 Ibezim appealed to the governor to intervene on the deplorable condition of their road. He said the community has virtually been cut off at the railway crossing.
