Enugu protest: Normalcy has been restored at Ogbete market
Normalcy has been restored at Ogbete Market Enugu and its surroundings, following the report of protest by some traders over the sealing of their shops by the State Government and their attempt to force others, whose shops were not sealed, to close theirs and the entire market closed. The initially peaceful protest was hijacked and made to become violent.
Traders in the market and citizens alike have been pleaded with to remain law-abiding, peaceful and cooperative while using approved channels to express their grievances.
A full-scale investigation has been initiated on the orders of the Commissioner of Police, while further development, especially as it concerns reports of casualties being circulated, will be communicated as soon as possible, please.
