Read Time:54 Second

The Abia State Government has dismissed claims that five workers died at the ongoing Ariaria International Market remodelling site in Aba.

Reacting to the viral report on Wednesday, the Commissioner for Information and Culture, Prince Okey Kanu, described the story as completely false and urged residents to ignore it.

According to Kanu, no lives were lost at the site, and the government remains committed to ensuring the safety of every worker involved in the project.

He stressed that the Ariaria Market remodelling is progressing smoothly under strict safety guidelines, adding that spreading fake news could cause unnecessary panic and distract from the state’s development goals.
