To some people this is good news,
while some believe it will simply make a lot of people abandon their roles of
tidying up their environment all in the name of walking freely during the
exercise. Well a Federal High Court in Lagos has stopped the restriction of
people moving freely during the last Saturday’s monthly exercise in Lagos.
Here's how Punch reports it.
A Federal High Court in Lagos has declared as unlawful the
restriction of citizens’ movement during the Lagos monthly environmental
sanitation exercise.
Justice Mohammed Idris, in a judgment delivered on Monday,
held that such restriction of movement in the name of sanitation amounted to a
violation of the citizens’ right to personal liberty and freedom of movement as
protected by sections 35 and 41 of the Constitution.
