Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Kano State Government has enacted a law that would curtail the indiscriminate sale of explosive related items within communities, following the explosion that rocked the state recently.<\/p>\n

Already, the government has constituted a high powered Legal Committee under the State Secretary to Government, Usman Alhaji to not only draft the suitable regulations against the sale of Gas Cylinders but also bring recommendations on the desirable punitive measures against the menace.<\/p>\n

The State Commissioner for Environment, Dr. Kabiru Ibrahim Getso, while celebrating this year\u2019s Environmental Day, explained that slowly gas cylinder explosions in Kano are becoming year in year out problems that need to quickly be tackled.<\/p>\n

He said it has become clear that only serious legislation can curtail the problems and as such, they have strongly resolved to enact a law that would put in punitive measures against anybody caught disregarding laid down directives on the sales and display of the products.<\/p>\n

Dr. Kabiru Ibrahim Getso hinted that the recent gas cylinders related emissions that had resulted in the hospitalizations of over 100 peoples at Sheka was because of ignorance on the part of the owner of the products.<\/p>\n
