NORMALCY RETURNS AS OSUN GOVERNMENT REOPENS KAJOLA MARKET
Following the reopening of Kajola market in Atakumosa West Local Government, by Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke of Osun State, normalcy has returned to the entire area as people go about their daily activities peacefully.
Recall that the market was closed down on Friday August 3, to forestall total breakdown of law and order in the town.
The decision to reopen the market by the State Government was taken after a mediation meeting, anchored by the Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Rev. Bunmi Jenyo at the conference hall of the Ministry on Tuesday.
Since its reopening on Saturday August 12, sellers and buyers who transact varying businesses in the market were seen pursuing their activities in a peaceful manner without interference or violence.
During the official visit of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Market women, Mrs Eniola Omotosho on Saturday, marketwomen and men expressed happiness and satisfaction about the reopening of the market.
Speaking on behalf of the farmers who brought their produce to the market, Mr. Ilori Olatunji, visibly excited, appreciated the Osun State Governor for coming to their rescue from the grip of few dissidents who wanted to truncate the peace of the market, simply because of their selfish and personal gains.
Marketers of different items, such as tomatoes, peppers, snails, plantains, yam, onions, oil, rice, beans, cocoa, colanut etc and other commodities were happy because their products were no longer wasted, the market was full to capacity as traders from within and outside Osun State thronged the marketplace for undisturbed transactions.
