Governor Okezie Ikpeazu says he is impressed with the level of compliance on the relocation of traders at Isigate umuahia to designated markets in the state.
The Governor who stated this while inspecting the level of compliance to the relocation order, also directed the ministry of Trade and Investment to sustain the tempo on the successes recorded so far, adding that if the space at Isigate is allowed fallow for a long time, traders might be tempted to return to the area.
He urged the commissioner for Trade and Investment Dr Cosmos Ndukwe to continue working with APUMA and other collaborating bodies in the course of the assignment.
Speaking while conducting the Governor round the popular Isigate umuahia, the Commissioner for Trade and Investment Dr Cosmos Ndukwe said that the team has already cautioned landlords in umuahia on allowing their front-page to be used for trading activities, warning that any one caught will have his certificate of occupancy withdrawn by Government.
