Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources in Oyo State, Isaac Ishola says wares seized from traders who flout environmental sanitation laws will be distributed to orphanages.
Ishola disclosed this in a statement today in Ibadan, saying that street trading persisted because offenders were able to retrieve their wares after paying fines.
The commissioner said in the statement signed by the Press Officer in the ministry, Olusegun Adesoji, that government would do everything possible to ensure environmental cleanliness.
Ishola called for attitudinal change among residents, saying they should desist from waiting for government to enforce environmental laws.
He said that the full enforcement of environmental laws commenced on May 15 and would be observed in the morning and evening.
