ABSTRACT

Wastes constitute one of the most crucial health and environmental issues facing managers of cities and suburbs. Periodic markets have every other characteristics of a daily market apart from being opened on occasionally. As a result wastes are more likely to be left exposed or not properly managed. The study examined management and disposal of market waste in periodic markets in Ondo East and Odigbo local government areas of Ondo State. Four research questions and two hypotheses were stated to guide the findings of the study. The study employed the use of descriptive survey. The study was carried out on nine-one (91) market men and women. A structured questionnaire made up of 28 items was used for data collection. Responses to the questionnaire were analysed descriptively and inferential using frequency count, percentage, mean and t-test. Major findings revealed that the methods for disposing market wastes in periodic markets were land filling, incineration, open dumping, composting, mechanical destruction and public and private waste management. Further findings revealed that in periodic markets in Odigbo and Ondo East Local Government areas wastes were biologically, chemically or thermally treated. Wastes were left to decompose, packed in polythene bags for pick up, differentiated by type, sold to individuals in need of them, burnt to reduce its size and chemicals were added to detoxify wastes. It was recommended that through market meeting and organisation of different marketers there should be creation of special agencies for the collection of wastes in periodic markets. To differentiate each category and type of waste, organizations could have different arrangement for disposing and treating market wastes and that government should make concerted effort with the community to recycle and convert solid waste to wealth.
