Ondo State Gov. Oluwarotimi
Akeredolu has banned logging activities in forest reserves across the 18 local
government areas of the state.
In a statement signed by Mr Toyin
Akinkuotu, the state Head of Service, on Friday in Akure, Akeredolu said that
the ban had immediate effect.
The governor also dissolved every
taskforce on forestry and related matters.
He directed law enforcement
agencies and forestry officials to ensure strict compliance with the
directives.
‘‘This development is coming on the heels of reported illegal
exploration activities going on in forest reserves across the state.
‘‘The illegal activities have resulted in loss of huge revenues by
the state government,’’ he said.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Akeredolu of the APC
was sworn-in on Feb. 24, following his election on Nov. 26, 2016.
