According to IgbereTV reports, Kaduna Markets Company has released a list of public facilities in Chikun, Igabi, Kaduna North and Kaduna South LGAs that shall serve as locations for temporary neighbourhood markets from Saturday, 2 May 2020 until the Quarantine Orders are rescinded.
This follows the directive of the Kaduna State Government that all major markets will be closed and be replaced by temporary neighbourhood markets while the Quarantine Orders are in force.
The temporary markets are located in public facilities selected to foster easy access and remove the need for long commutes to get essentials. Traders in food and essentials will be allocated space to sell their goods in these markets which shall operate from 10am to 4pm.
The report revealed that traders and customers are required to wear facemasks and observe social distancing within these temporary markets. Security agencies will enforce compliance with required conditions and ensure that business is conducted in an atmosphere of law and order.
