He urged traders to prioritise cleanliness and adhere to designated stall allocations to maintain an orderly marketplace.

The commissioner further recommended the formation of structured trader groups, grouping vendors of similar goods (e.g., grains) into specific zones to enhance efficiency and organisation. He also called for the unification of existing traders' associations to improve coordination and streamline market operations.

The Chairman, Kwara Internal Revenue Service (KW-IRS), Engr. (Mrs.) Shade Omoniyi, emphasized the need for proper market management to ensure its sustainability and maximize revenue generation for the state, while urging stakeholders to utilize the market efficiently.
