The Nasarawa State Government has temporarily banned the use of motorcycles and tricycles in the state to curb the spread of coronavirus that is ravaging the world.
This was contained in a proclamation order number four, twenty-twenty, signed and made available to newsmen by Governor Abdullahi Sule.

The governor disclosed that security patrols will remain intensified to ensure full compliance with proclamation, and all defaulters will be prosecuted in accordance with the law.
