assigned places inside Agora.
Co's warning came after he received complaints from market goers alleys inside
Agora were obstructed by rows ambulant fruit and vegetable vendors selling just
elsewhere.
Co, during his personal visit to the market, Friday, with some media members,
urged vendors to go back to their assigned stalls and stop encroaching lanes.
"Di naman na negosyo inyo, pamintaha naman na," he said.
The mayor added that he wants to put everything in perspective by properly
arranging the fruit and vegetable sections as he called on them to refrain from
worming into the market's passageways again.
He also told media later in a press conference that he will see to it that those
vendors will be put in the right and common places inside the Agora for good by
imposing penalties on them and or closure if they violate anew.
He said he plans to look for somewhere from the city market to put all fruit
vendors together in one place to lessen the inconvenience of market goers.
Co also pointed out the need for strong market law pertaining to its cleanliness
and other shenanigans practiced by unscrupulous vendors at present.
The mayor also said he is been trying to build the image of the city that is
proper and clean yet these vendors destroy that record.
"Tagaan man ta ninyo'g problema, ang gobyerno man inyong pakasad-on. Unsay
legal, legal; ang dili legal dili," Co ended. (MM MEDINA)
