As part of measures to contain the messy security situation in Adamawa, the state Government has banned the operations of commercial motorcycles in seven Local Government areas.
A statement by Phineas Elisha, the Director Press and Public Affairs to Governor Bala Ngilari, urged the public and security operatives to ensure compliance.
The affected local governments are Hong, Gombi, Song, Girei, Numan, Demsa and Fufore.
In a swift reaction to the development, many people have condemned the action saying it would caused further hardship to the people.
“Many people running away from the insurgency in the affected local government areas particularly Hong, Gombi and Song rely on motorcycle due to shortage of vehicles.
The capital city is now full of motor and human traffic while food and cold water vendors make brisk business as IDPs rush for food and ice water to cool down on arrival.
