The Commissioner for Trade, Industry, Investment and Cooperatives, Mr. Adeniyi Adebisi said this is part of the government’s moves aimed at boosting revenue and promoting accountability.

The decision according to him was reached during a meeting held with Market representatives at the Ministry today.

Adebisi stated that defaulting marketers were initially given a three-week notice, which ends on Monday, September 9th, 2024 to pay their overdue stall fees into the Government’s account

Others are creation of a market development fund to support traders as well as the regularization of market allocation and stall ownership.

The Commissioner emphasized the importance of compliance, warning that defaulters may face penalties or eviction from the market.

Market representatives were urged to prioritize rent payments to avoid any disruptions to their businesses.

Honourable Adebisi stated that, “The enforcement drive is aimed at ensuring that market stall holders contribute to the state’s revenue, which will be used to further develop our markets and benefit the traders.”

Mr. Olasiji Olaosebikan and Alhaja Oluremi Animashaun from Ogbomosho and Podo Ultra – Modern markets respectively, appreciated the government supports and pledged to synergize with the state government to ensure the success of the initiative.

They acknowledged the need for a structured rent collection system and expressed willingness to cooperate with the government.
