Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The Borno State Urban Planning and Development Board has banned street hawking and other illegal activities in Maiduguri metropolis.

The development was confirmed in a statement issued by the General Manager of the board, Mr Limán Mustapha on Friday.

Mustapha said the board banned street hawking, the operation of tricycle operators and generator mechanics around Maiduguri’s Post Office and Monday Market areas.

Also, activities on pedestrian walkways, junctions and roundabouts, the sale of engine oil on the road reservations, the dumbing of sand or building materials and mixing of cement on the roads, and the construction of boreholes by the roadsides were also banned.

The manager said that those affected by the order had been asked to vacate the occupied sites with immediate effect.

“The board has no alternative but to arrest and prosecute defaulters in a court of law,” adding that the measure would ensure a clean, safe and organise urban environment in Maiduguri and other parts of the state.
