Traders in Agunloye Market in Ado, the Ado-Odo Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State have appealed to relevant government agencies to clear the heap of refuse in the market.When our correspondent visited the market on Thursday, it was observed that the heap of refuse was located at the centre of the market with stench oozing from it.
Bakare said, “We have made efforts to call on the government, most especially those in the area office close to us, to see ways they can help us to evacuate the refuse because it has deterred people from patronising the market because it is closer to the foodstuffs stand. A community leader who identified herself simply as Mrs Amoleogun said that whenever it rains, the odour becomes unbearable for residents of the area.
The community youth leader, Adelaja Adeyinka, urged the government to come to the community’s rescue to avert the outbreak of diseases.
