The Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources in Oyo State, Mr
Isaac Ishola, says wares seized from traders who flout environmental
sanitation laws will be distributed to orphanages.
Ishola said in a statement in Ibadan on Tuesday that street trading
persisted because offenders were able to retrieve their wares after
paying fines.
The commissioner said in the statement signed by the Press Officer in the ministry, Mr Olusegun Adesoji, that government would do everything possible to ensure environmental cleanliness.
“ The present administration places so much priority on a healthy and hygienic environment and safety of lives and properties,’’ he was quoted to have said in the statement.
Ishola called for attitudinal change among residents, saying they should desist from waiting for the government to enforce environmental laws.
He said that the full enforcement of environmental laws commenced on May 15 and would be observed in the morning and evening.
The commissioner also warned street traders at Challenge area of the metropolis to move to the Scout Camp Market.
