Umahi bans selling, buying of lands, shops at Ebonyi market

– Tamarauemi Ebimini

Gov. David Umahi of Ebonyi has warned against illegal selling and buying of lands and shops at the popular Kpirikpiri market in the state.

This is contained in a statement on Wednesday in Abakaliki by the state Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Mr Uchenna Orji.

Umahi warned the people involved to desist from the transaction, noting that the state government would punish perpetrators.

“It has come to the notice of the governor that some local government officials of Ebonyi Local Government Council are illegally selling lands and shops at Kpirikpiri Market.

“The sellers and buyers should know that the market is within the capital and as such belongs to the state government.

The governor noted that after seven days from Wednesday, all lands and shops whose occupants failed to make their papers and appropriate payments would be shut.
