In a decisive move to bolster security, Zamfara State Governor Dauda Lawal has enacted new executive orders targeting the sale of bread and petrol, as well as the use of tinted vehicle glasses.
The orders, which come in the wake of recent security incidents, aim to regulate activities that may contribute to the state’s challenges.
Executive Order No. 02, 2024 mandates bakeries to label their products with complete production details and restricts petrol sales to a maximum of 50 litres per vehicle, with operational hours set from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Additionally, the sale and transport of bread are confined to specific areas within local government capitals.
To further these efforts, Executive Order No. 04, 2024 prohibits the use of tinted glasses in vehicles across Zamfara State.
These measures reflect the government’s commitment to addressing the underlying factors of the state’s security situation.
