There shall be restriction of human and vehicular movements in Oyo State between 6.00 a.m. and 9.00 a.m. on Saturday, the state government has announced.
Only those on essential duties would be exempted.
The order was given by the state government following the need to carry out the national monthly environmental sanitation exercise in the state.
The announcement of the restriction is contained in a statement issued by the Director, Engineering and Beautification for the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources, Engr. Moshood Adeola.
The government directed all the local government council heads to ensure compliance in their respective domains, as it is expected that roads are blocked to refrain movements.
The release also directed Directors of Environment Health Services in the 33 local governments and 35 Local Council Development Areas (LCDA) within the state to monitor the exercise as a matter of duty.
The statement, therefore, enjoined shop owners, market men and women, security operatives, Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), Tricycle Owners and Operators Association of Nigeria (TOOAN), Association of Commercial Motorcycle Riders of Nigeria (ACOMMORAN) and the general public to comply with the environmental sanitation exercise and clean their surroundings.
