Following the ban on motorcycles and electric bikes in Borno State, the state police command has directed filling stations to stop selling petrol to motorcyclists.

Disclosing this in a press statement obtained by our correspondent on Thursday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Nahum Daso, said the decision was made at a security meeting in the state.

According to him, defaulters would be sanctioned.

The statement partly read, “The command has observed the flagrant use of motorcycles, especially electrical bikes, in the state, and wishes to remind the general public that the ban on motorcycles in the state still subsists.

“The decision was taken at the Borno State Security Council based on the security challenges in the state.

“Members of the public are further advised to adhere to this order. Any person found in possession of electric or petrol-powered motorbikes will be arrested for violating the order.

“Filling stations are equally warned, to desist from selling petrol products to customers on motorcycles. Any filling station found selling petrol to motorcyclists will be sanctioned and sealed for prosecution.”

Daso further urged operators of logistics services to use tricycles.

“Delivery and logistic companies are advised to use tricycles (Keke Napep) to carry out their operations in the state.

“The command further seeks the cooperation of members of the general public for sustainable peace and security of our dear state,” he added.
