Some Yoruba traders on Friday stormed the headquarters of Onitsha South Local Government Area in Anambra to protest alleged plot by the council chairman, Emeka Orji, to eject them from their Oduigbo section of the Ochanja Central market.

The protesters, who were led by their chairman, Taiwo Badmus, accused the council chairman of collaborating with the chairman of Ochanja Central market, Mr Bonaventure Muo, to eject them in the name of building modern shops.

They carried placards, some of which read “council chairman, Emeka Orji, what have we done to you”, “some of us are widows”, “we earn our living from Oduigbo market”, “Gov. Soludo come to our rescue, they want to demolish the shops in the market to acquire more shops for themselves”, among others.

Taiwo, addressing newsmen on the protest, said that the market chairman and the council chairman, gave them two days to vacate the market or they will use carterpillars to demolish the over 300 shops.

According to him, they said Sunday and Monday would be used for the demolition and asked us to vacate the market before they come up with their weapons of destruction.

“Eighty per cent of the traders here are widows who earn their living from the Oduigbo market,” he said

He appealed to Gov. Charles Soludo to come to their rescue, saying they have no other person to understand their predicament except him alone.

The spokesperson for the widows, Ifeoma Emeka, lamented that the widows, who make up majority of the traders in the market, were being treated like slaves by the government.

Contacted by NAN for comments, the council chairman declined to comment on the issue, while the Ochanja market chairman, said he was working based on instruction from government.

what will Igbos hear, they are better than you in all aspects of life

Igbos should please hold their peace. Igbos are more matured.

The OP is a liar. This is the original news link: https://dailynigerian.com/traders-protest-plot-eject/
There was no mention of Yoruba there. The OP replaced Chief Chukwudi Eke with Taiwo Badmus, in order to achieve whatever evil agenda of his might be.

Ezmans:
what will Igbos hear, they are better than you in all aspects of life

Better in what way to start with sef?
Dey play.

OP, you are a shameless criminal. The protesters were Igbos selling their goods along the road in Ochanja . Igbos constitute 95 percent of the protesters

They should all be shot with AK-47, survivors should be reshot with AK-49.

Anambra indegenes ran away from their state to come and slave in Yoruba land, but you criminals that have committed abominations here in Yoruba land and have been banished by the people ran to same Anambra. Definitely you are criminals and ahoy be treated as such. These Yorubas trading in Anambra must be selling human parts harvested from baby factories
