"I am optimistic that these barricades will provide a lasting solution to the gridlocks that have constantly bedeviled this market over time.

Mr Onuko reiterated his commitment toward ensuring that Awka Capital Territory attains the level of a befitting Capital, calling on Ndi Anambra to come out en- masse on March 18 to cast their votes for the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) candidates in order to enjoy a hitch free development in the state.

Mr Christian Nweke, a trader at the market, commended the action of Mr Governor, Prof. Charles Soludo in safeguarding the lives and property of the traders, adding that this is a step in the right direction.
