The Enugu State Government has warned residents, businesses, organisations, and advertisers against vandalising, damaging, or using bus shelters and other public transport infrastructure across the state without authorisation.

The State Commissioner for Transport, Obi Ozor, issued a warning in a statement released in Enugu by the ministry’s spokesman, Odumegwu Chinwendu, which was made available to reporters on Thursday.

Ozor stated that the newly built bus shelters and transport infrastructure are public assets created through substantial government investments to develop a cleaner, safer, more organised, and modern transportation system.

He explained that the ministry had observed with grave concern the rising number of posters, stickers, banners, handbills, and other unauthorised advertisements being posted on bus shelters and related public infrastructure across the state.

According to him, such acts are unlawful and unacceptable and will no longer be tolerated.
