Oyo Govt Condemns Temidire Market Protest, Describes It As Unfortunate

Oyo State government has reacted to the protest that occurred at Temidire Market yesterday, says the redesigning is in the best interest of the state and cannot be sabotaged.

The statement reads:

"Our reaction to the stage-managed protest at the Temidire Market yesterday, is that it is misdirected and unfortunate.

This project is only one among many of the ongoing statewide market redevelopment activities, and cannot therefore be sabotaged.

What we seek to do in Temidire market is to redesign/modernize it with infrastructural facilities for the benefit of all stakeholders including the neighboring communities who have complained against the environmental hazard they've had to live with for a very long time.

This is quite apart from the very important need to forestall the large scale fire incidences usually associated with plank markets associated with plank markets located within built-up environments."
