Upon inspection, our officers confirmed the claim. The shop owner was served with an abatement notice, directing him to relocate and discontinue the storage of such materials, but he failed to comply. Consequently, we had no option but to seal the premises and take legal action,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Commissioner for Environment and Climate Change, Dr. Dahiru M. Hashim, emphasized that the sealing exercise was part of the government\u2019s commitment to ensuring public safety and environmental protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStoring hazardous substances in residential areas poses a serious threat to health and the environment.
