Ogun State Government has vowed to resist any form of illegal activities in its forest reserves , saying only tractors
registered with the State Ministry of Forestry will be allowed to operate
The State Commissioner for Forestry, Engr. Taiwo Oludotun stated this during an interview with newsmen at his office in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta
He further disclosed that registration and proper documentation of the tractor with the Ministry is necessary, as a sticker would be issued before such a tractor could be allowed to operate within the reserves.
Oludotun stated that timber contractors were also not left out in the new order, adding that they must also revalidate their registration with the Ministry before they could be allowed to operate within the government forest reserves, advising forest officers to ensure they protect trees planted from being destroyed.
