Fapohunda wondered why the residents had continued to flout the COVID-19 guideline as it concerned face mask use despite the sensitisation before now and the sanctions on the violators since Monday when the face mask law enforcement began. The AG while speaking with newsmen in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital on Thursday said, “We have prosecuted over 150 face mask use violators in three days at the Special Offences Court set up to try the offenders. Gen. Ebenezer Ogundana (retd), disclosed that accredited security men and men of the Ekiti State Traffic Management Agency had been properly briefed to enforce the law as it related particularly to face mask use. Ogundana advised car owners on the use of the face mask, saying, “If you don’t have it, it constitutes an offence. You must have the face mask with you in your car.”NIGERIAN TRIBUNE
