Anaedoonline.com spoke to a former member, board of trustee of Agbo-Edo Market, Mr. Joseph Enuma to get his view on this complaint, he was also of the opinion that sitting the toilet at that spot is unwise.
“It is one of the reasons why Nwalupuo sacked the Board of Trustees because we refused the location of the toilet. We are of the opinion that the toilet facility cannot be in front of the market because there is no way someone will build a house and erect toilet in front of the house instead of the back”
Anaedoonline.com also spoke to some of the market executives, they were all of the opinions that the toilet should not have been built at that spot.
A former chairman of Agbo Edo market called the Toilet an eye-sore.
However, when we spoke to Mr. Christopher Osuojukwu in a bid to get an explanation, he explained that the location of the toilet got the approval of the state govt.
He said,
“Before we started building that Toilet, Anambra state govt approved it, if you go to motor parts, you will see where their toilet was built. Obiano is aware of this toilet, we got approval, we also got approval from ASUDEB”
