Traders at Orie Emene in the Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State, whose shops were demolished by the state government last year, have accused state officials of using the police to threate

n them for protesting against their non-accommodation in the newly-constructed market at Cattle Larearage, Emene Industrial Layout on the Enugu-Abakaliki road.

Sources told our correspondent that the DPO of the station, CSP Ifeanyi Onu, threatened to arrest the traditional ruler of Emene-Nike, Igwe Felix Ugwu, if the protest held. Our correspondent gathered that trouble started when over 400 traders, whose shops were demolished, were not accommodated in plots 16B and 16C at the Cattle Larearage Emene Industrial Layout, which were initially allocated for them due to lack of enough space.
