Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission has vowed to resist any attempt or threats by business operators to close any food market over instability in the price of commodities.
The commission warned dealers caught hoarding food items in the city will face dire consequences if they do not desist from the act that is capable of worsening the difficult food inflation.
According to reports, the agency’s warning came barely 24 hours after the Singer Market Traders Association threatened to shut down the entire section of the market.
The market union who lamented undue pressure on its members from the government and the public over the hyper cost of food items and provisions, said they would rather prefer to keep their goods deposited in stores.
