Traders in Suleja town in Suleja LGA of Niger State have decried the activities of thugs, as well as various task forces, operating within the popular IBB Market and on the roads.

The traders said the thugs and operatives of the task forces extorted them and the visitors to the market, thereby crippling business activities in the commercial town.

A trader, Salisu Abdullahi, said a number of traders and other residents from the neighbouring FCT, as well as some parts of Kogi, Nasarawa and Kaduna states, were no longer patronising them due to the various extortions by thugs and officials, mostly working under the Suleja council. Mr Okoli said,"You can go round the market to see how the activities have made visitors desert here simply because they can no longer bear the exploitation."

Contacted, the Director General of the Niger State Transport Management Agency , Muhammad Auwal Dattijo, declined to respond to the allegation.
