The Adamawa State Government has imposed an immediate and total ban on the posting of advertisements, campaign materials, and other posters on all government property and public structures.<\/p>\n
The announcement was made in Yola, the State Capital by the Commissioner for the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, Mohammed Sadiq, during a press briefing.<\/p>\n
Commissioner Sadiq stated that the widespread practice of pasting posters has become a major concern, as it defaces public infrastructure and violates the state’s environmental sanitation laws. He emphasized that this activity undermines the government’s ongoing efforts to maintain a clean and orderly environment across Adamawa.<\/p>\n
“The government has observed with great concern the increasing rate at which individuals, groups, and organizations paste campaign, commercial, and promotional posters on government buildings, streetlight poles, public signboards, roundabouts, and other public structures,” Sadiq said.<\/p>\n
The ban extends to all forms of posters, stickers, and banners on any government-owned buildings and facilities within the state capital and throughout all local government areas.<\/p>\n
Commissioner Sadiq issued a stern warning to the general public, including political organizations, religious bodies, and business operators, to immediately cease the practice.<\/p>\n
He stressed that any person or group found violating the directive would face the full wrath of the law. The Ministry will not hesitate to prosecute defaulters and will remove all illegally posted materials at the expense of the violators, in accordance with the Adamawa State Environmental Protection and Sanitation Laws.<\/p>\n
While appealing for public cooperation to uphold the directive for the collective interest of the environment and the state’s image, Commissioner Sadiq reaffirmed the Ministry’s commitment to ensuring a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment for all residents of Adamawa State.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
