The Owerri West Council in Imo State has moved to restrict roadside trading at Irete Market, citing growing concerns over safety and traffic congestion. For many traders, operating along the roadside offers greater visibility and faster sales. However, authorities argue that unregulated roadside activity obstructs traffic flow, increases accident risks and undermines order within designated market spaces.
A market committee has now been set up to enforce compliance and relocate traders into approved stalls. While some vendors say they understand the safety concerns, others fear the move could reduce their daily income. The development has reopened a broader conversation about balancing urban order with economic survival in Nigeria’s informal sector.
Alex Ogbonnaya reports live from Irete Market, featuring reactions from traders and an assessment of traffic and safety implications.
