Traders in the popular Osa Market also known as “Ekiosa Market” have appealed to the Oba of Benin, His Royal Majesty Ewuare II, to prevail on the Edo State

The spokesperson also appealed to the Oba to send a delegation of chiefs to the market for an on-the-spot assessment of the markets in order not to leave anyone in doubt.

“We cry to the Palace for help as our last resort. When fire inferno occurred in Ekiosa in 2019, we lost our shops and goods. I lost four shops with goods. We hustle under the rain and sunshine, trading along the road and at times, the government taskforce came and drove us away. We had to borrow. We took loans to rebuild our shops.

“We didn’t get support from the government; we did not benefit from the N100 million that was given to traders who lost their shops in the market fire.“Our father should help us to talk to the governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, not to demolish the market. Rather, he should fence the market and provide gates for us. Our businesses are our lives and only means of survival,” Owie pleaded.
