According to the President General of Anambra State Amalgamated Market Traders Association, Mr Okwudili Ezenwankwo, the relocation is ‘unacceptable’ to them.

Channels TV reports that he appealed to the Federal Government and President Buhari to quash the decision to send down the insurgents under trial to Anambra State or any state of the Southeast, stressing that the people want to continue to enjoy the peace and serenity of the state.
At Tarzan junction, traders went wild with strong, expressing their dissatisfaction over the story and said it would be resisted to the last, as there were no maximum prisons to secure the insurgents if they were relocated as they heard.
The chairman of Idemili Market Traders Amalgamated Association, Chuma Eruchalu, rejected the move and also maintain that the traders would not stop until the relocation idea was dropped completely.
