*Hope Uzodinma, Imo State Gov |
Trouble broke out in Imo state today, as traders blocked the main entrance to the Imo State Government
House in protest of an alleged sale of their fruit and vegetable market place
at relief Market, Owerri, by the interim management Chairman of Owerri
Municipal Council, Mr. Ambrose Nkwodimma.
In defiance to the traders,
the council chairman, rebuffed their protest, as he insisted that no amount of
protest would stop the council from the planned development of the market
place.
The traders said they were
allocated the market by Rochas Okorocha's government and which
they did the clearing with their own money. But now the council has ripped
them off by selling the market. They called on the present Imo state governor
to intervene.
