Traders at Ukunda showground are decrying low business due to the poor working environment. The county government of Kwale temporarily relocated the traders from the Ibiza market to the showground to prevent the spread of Covid-19. “Walking all the way to this place is tiresome and customers opt to do shopping outside this market,” he said. Sebastian Juma said the Kwale government should at least try to contain the hawkers in one area or take small-scale traders back to Ibiza market. Last Month the Calypso market vendors also called on the county government to fas tht-track the construction of the new marketplace in Ukunda.
