According to the landlords, tenants have been refunded their rents.

But the secretary of the Ikoku Traders Union, Nnmadi Levi have narrated how the spare parts traders were called in the early hours of Wednesday by local guards to report that men in police uniform, together with suspected thugs and cultists from the area came in their numbers to beat them up and chased them out of the market before they allegedly began vandalizing of their shops.

He said the union leaders gathered this morning at their shops to witness first hand the level of vandalization and destruction and described it as wickedness.

Nnamdi Levi decried that the traders who have been at home for months following the long closure of the market by the state government are yet to even recover from the long lockdown and wondered why such wickedness will be perpetrated against the traders.

Armed bandits again..

Jajaslim:
You were given quick notice but you decided to be stubborn now you’re accusing them of looting your shops?

Check well it’s your colleagues looting your shops and not the indigenous people.

Son of man, it is quit notice not quick notice

Well, they were warned.

Officialgarri:
Armed bandits again..

If you have no plans to detonate bombs or rig elections, you have no need to be afraid of Wike.

Only islamic fanatics have fear for Wike,Israel,America,France,UK,etc and even the air they breathe.

I suppose the quit notice elapsed before this. If not then its pure wickedness demolishing peoples shops along with thier goods.

Where did you read that all the landlords are indigenes while all the tenants are settlers? can't you see that the op is an ikwerre indigene? tribalism and hatred have eaten up your soul and rendered you soulless.

I'm sad to see this unfold knowing we're in the midst of a pandemic. The reality is that the nuisance we in Portharcourt experience from this part sellers is legendary! Most of the landlords can't collect common rent of 50k yearly without court orders and legal fights and the unsightly nature of the environment is enough to quit them. For those who don't know these people have been given a site to relocate over 5years ago and they boast that nothing can happen!

Imagine paying them back and they still didn’t move out.
Meanwhile some are forced out of the property they paid for elsewhere.

Nigeria is the way it is because of the mentality of people like you, People like you should start asking the right questions before opening their mouth to vomit nonsense, Yes there is a quit notice but you should understand that we are talking about market and it is not house where two/three people live, it is where thousand of people fend for their daily bread. Your question would have been was there an alternative place for them to relocate. You are here insulting and accusing them of not complying to the notice but you are not putting yourself in their shoes, today is there own tomorrow may be yours you never know. If there is an alternative and they ignored it, then that will be on them but when there is not, what do you want them to do?

Omoluabi leave Ibo threads let's championship our issues. You are same person as the op aren't you?

if truly their rent were refunded, they should relocate. I heard that wike has bought the Land. they should move to Oyigbo

OriakuAmara:
if truly their rent were refunded, they should relocate.
I heard that wike has bought the Land.
they should move to Oyigbo

That should be better.

It's a pity

OriakuAmara:
if truly their rent were refunded, they should relocate.
I heard that wike has bought the Land.
they should move to Oyigbo

That foolish thug.
They should relocate to Oyigbo if the thug actually bought the land.

Mumu Igbos, Do they also voted for PDP? They should enjoy Wike's continuity.
As they do ask and imply in any APC governed State.

There is an alternative in Oyibo LGA but they boost nothing will have.

He don't happen

IkwerrePikin:


There is an alternative in Oyibo LGA but they boost nothing will have.

Inasmuch I don't understand what you mean by (but they boost nothing will have} You also said they have an alternative in another LGA I will ask, is the alternative conducive for them? or is it another inconvenient to add on what they are already in. The alternative, does it have good access road, electricity, water, are there lockup shops that will accommodate all the traders that was at the previous market? or will we see a large percentage fell to the crack as it is with any other thing in Nigeria?

Former Governor Amaechi tried relocating them to another place outside the city center, but this same Governor Wike was among those that were giving them backing in 2014 that nothing will happen to them. There was a protest back then that Amaechi is a bad person. He gave them option to choose between Igrwuta and Oyigbo but they refused. Now the same man that they thought was fighting for them has come to buy the land and send them away without making plan to relocate them to a new place.
