1. In response to the growing security concerns in Osara and its surrounding areas, the Kogi State Government has ordered the immediate closure of Zango Market and banned the roadside parking of trucks in the vicinity. These measures are aimed at preventing a potential security crisis in the area.
2. Intelligence reports indicate that criminal elements have been using the market as a hideout, often in collaboration with some truck drivers who park along the roadside. This situation poses a significant security threat to the Confluence University of Science and Technology, Osara, and the broader Osara community.
3. To ensure strict compliance, the State Government has given market operators and truck drivers a one-week grace period, starting today, to adhere to these directives. After this period, enforcement will be fully implemented.
4. His Excellency, Alhaji Ahmed
