The government shut the markets earlier because of improper waste management and other environmental infractions.
The Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, said the markets were reopened after the environmental issues had been addressed.
“The decision to reopen the markets followed rigorous assessment and implementation of stringent environmental standards. He said the enforcement would be continuous as the government would not hesitate to seal any market or corporate facility found wanting. “We have standards that each market in the state has to comply with to make our business environment clean and healthy for buyers and sellers.
“Tariffs must also be fully paid as any violation of the stated regulations would attract penalties and possible subsequent closure of offending markets,’’ he said
