Traders at Lukolis market center in Teso South Sub County have expressed their joy over the planned construction of a modern market at the center by the National government.
The government, through the state department of Housing and Urban Development is expected to construct an economic stimulus package (ESP) market at a cost of approximately Sh50 million.
Led by Tophista Omuse, traders said the current environment has remained a challenge to them as they do their business because they are exposed to the elements. "Right now, we are at the open-air market and as you can see many of the traders lack shade.
During this hot period, our goods are destroyed by the sun and for us, we develop health problems due to the long exposure to the sun," she said.
