- Delta State Government says it will enforce to the fullest, the ban on commercial motorcycles and scrap metal scavenging popularly known as 'iron condemn' in restricted areas across the state.
Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Kingsley Emu disclosed this in an interview with journalists shortly after a meeting with critical stakeholders in the state. He said there would be zero tolerance for okada riders in restricted areas and scrap metal scavengers across the state.
He said the stakeholders meeting attended by all security agencies comprising the military, police, NSCDC and the DSS as well as the Sariki of Asaba, Alhaji Ibrahim Baba Gero, was to further drive the message on the ban of Okada in some designated areas to Deltans and residents of the state.
According to him, commercial motorcycles remained banned in the capital territory, adding that commercial motorcycles in most areas of Oshimili South and Oshimili North Local Government Areas have significantly been banned.
He pointed out that the state government had listed all the streets where commercial motorcyclists should not ply, noting that they have become a source of concern to Deltans and residents not only in the capital territory but across the entire length and breadth of the state, even as he said that they have been given up to May 31 to comply.
Dr. Emu said the essence of the meeting was to strategize for effective operations, implementation and enforcement of the ban on commercial motorcycles in restricted areas as well as to properly brief and hand over the Gazette to critical stakeholders to be abreast and educate their people.
In their separate remarks at the meeting, the Sariki of Asaba, Alhaji Ibrahim Baba Gero; a Special Assistant to the governor, Alhaji Muktar Usman and the Chairman of Delta State Muslims Pilgrims Welfare Board, Alhaji Auwalu Turkur, said they would continue to support the policies and programmes of the state government.
