The Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, has signed an Executive Order forbidding the use of tinted glasses, the sale of unlabelled bread, and the selling of over 50 gallons of petrol throughout the state.
This was reported in a statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sulaiman Idris, on Wednesday.
Lawal signed Executive Order No. 02 and Executive Order No. 04, 2024, to address numerous concerns identified as contributing reasons to the security challenges in the state.
The statement read, “Following the recent spate of attacks on some communities across some local government areas of the state, particularly Zurmi, Shinkafi, Kaura Namoda and Talata Mafara and the resurgence of activities of banditry, kidnapping in communities and some major federal highways in the state, Governor Lawal has signed Executive Order No. 02 2024, banning the sale of unlabelled and packaged bread in sacks and prohibiting some unwanted activities in the state.
“All bakery production companies and enterprises must label their bread with the full address and particulars of their production factory with immediate effect.
“All petrol filling stations in the state shall not sell more than 50 litres of petrol to vehicles at a time. Petroleum product sales at filling stations are also restricted from 6am to 6pm.
