The market, known as Africa’s largest gadget hub, faces an uncertain future as stakeholders and government officials navigate the complexities of urban development.
The stakeholders remain resolute in safeguarding the market’s operations and ensuring that their rights are upheld. This court order marks a significant step in their efforts to maintain the integrity and stability of the Computer Village Market.
