The market was recently engulfed by fire.

Meanwhile, Akorede encouraged State-owned media organisations in the State to seek other innovative models to improve their income generating capacity.
Akorede who is the Chairman, Sub-Committee on Publicity, for the inauguration of Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed, said this would assist them to meet up with their ever increasing obligations and to continually stay above board without over-relying on subventions from government.
The Governor’s aide however said in recognition of the contribution of media organisations to the socio-economic development of the state through its reportage and programming, government remained committed to supporting them all the way.
