Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State yesterday ordered the reopening of the Shasha market, a decision, he said, was taken in the best interest of the traders and for peace and harmony between the Yoruba and Hausa communities.
He said the decision to reopen the market was informed by the need for survival for the traders in the light of the declining economic situation. “When my brother governors visited Seriki Shasha palace, while we were working around, I realised that both the people I saw at Seriki’s place and those I met at Baale’s place were not happy because they have been deprived of doing their job.
I have also given instructions for some palliative works to be done. I have instructed that solar light be installed in the market any time of the day or night, we will see what is going on in the market.
Victims to get palliatives. Only palliatives? What's up these that were killed? seyiamakinde 📨
Palliative not compensation
We want full compensation, my brother's truck is burnt to ashes, many lost their lives. Others properties destroyed.
