The Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Abdullahi Adamu Candido, has said the council will no longer condone roadside trading along the Jikwoyi-Kurudu axis. 

He urged the affected traders that have already been ordered to leave to take advantage of the low cost formal sector of the Kurudu Relocation Market. 

Candido said the roadside traders should move to avoid embarrassment as the council would not condone roadside trading. 

He said they can own shops at the relocation market at an affordable rate. 

Candido made this known while inspecting the one kilometre road that leads to the market and other infrastructural development ongoing at the market. 

He commended the management of AMAC-IPDC and the contractors for the quality and pace of work at the market, and for achieving such a feat within a very short period of time.

The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, AMAC Investment and Property Development Company Limited (AMAC-IPDC), Yakubu Mohammed Adamu, used the opportunity to call on all subscribers who have made some deposits to complete their payments without further delay.

He said shop keys and allocation papers would be handed over to those who have made 100% payment at the end of October, adding that activities at the Kurudu Ultra-Modern Relocation Market will commence soon based on the matching order by the AMAC chairman.
