The Ekiti State government has ordered the closure of the Fayose Market in Ado Ekiti following attack on the Task Force, which maintains law and order in the market.
At the market yesterday, Ekiti’s own Computer Village, all was quiet, with the main and smaller gates locked.
Commissioner for Commerce, Industries and Cooperatives Michael Ayodele said the maket was closed after some unruly traders attempted to disrupt the peace.
Ayodele added that stakeholders must abide by rules and regulations guiding the conduct of business in the market.
He said the market would remain shut until traders vowed to stop obstructing access roads and walkways with their goods.
