The Ekiti State Governor’s wife, Dr. Olayemi Oyebanji, has called on market women to show compassion to the people of the state and not use the current economic crisis to increase their suffering.
She made this call on Wednesday when she met with the Iyalojas (market leaders) from all the local government areas of the state in her office. She said her husband, Governor Biodun Oyebanji, was worried about the high cost of food and other essential items in the state’s markets.
Dr. Oyebanji asked the market women to lower the prices of food and other goods that do not depend on foreign exchange, to help the ordinary citizens who are struggling with the situation.
