A lawmaker representing Epe Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Tasir Raji, has donated 400 stalls in the reconstructed Ayetoro Market, located in Epe Town, to his constituents.
According to a statement shared with Saturday PUNCH by the lawmaker’s Media Assistant, Babatunde Kaka, the initiative forms part of the official commissioning of the heritage Ayetoro Market, which was rebuilt by Raji.
Raji said he donated the stalls as part of his efforts to eradicate poverty in the constituency.
According to him, the former traders in the old market, totalling 200, had been allotted stalls in the new market, while an additional 200 new traders have also been accommodated.
In her address, the Chairman of Epe Local Government, Surah Animashaun, praised the lawmaker for “his life-enhancing projects” in the community, while calling on beneficiaries to utilise the opportunity.
Also speaking, a constituent, Pastor Ojelabi, lauded the lawmaker for the “numerous developmental strides” he continued to attract to the constituency.
He said, “You have done wonderfully well, and I want to say on behalf of the party that we are proud of you. I mean the sort of infrastructure development we continue to see—your unrelenting strides to empower your people in the education sector, health sector, food production, and so on and so forth.”
