Government to redevelop Aboabo Market in Tamale – Mahama Ayariga

Government officials, including Minister for Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs Mahama Ayariga, have announced plans to redevelop Aboabo Market in Tamale. The aim is to modernize the market infrastructure, accommodate more traders, and enhance commercial activities. During his visit to the market, Mr. Ayariga engaged market leaders to understand its current condition and discuss government's redevelopment plans.

Some market stalls, initiated during the Acheampong era, remain in the foundation stage. The redevelopment aligns with President John Mahama's promise to the area's people and is intended to create jobs and realize the government's vision of a 24-hour economy. Mr. Ayariga assured market leaders that the redevelopment would not displace existing traders but rather improve their operating conditions.

The government plans to involve market managers in the development process to ensure the proposed interventions meet traders' needs. Mr. Ayariga also visited Tamale Central Market to assess its current status.
