Zamfara State Hisbah Commission said it has intercepted and destroyed alcoholic drinks worth over N50 million between January and September 2022.
This was revealed to newsmen in Gusau by the permanent commissioner in charge of operations, Malam Usman Buhari Mai Jega, at Hisbah headquarters while parading the suspects and alcoholic drinks seized by the commission’s operatives.
According to him, the sales of alcoholic drinks are gradually reducing as the commission’s operatives are working seriously to ensure the free flow of alcoholic drinks in the state is stopped.
“We are operating to ensure that the laws and orders are maintained,” he added.
He appealed to the residents of Zamfara State to cooperate with the commission in its official responsibilities.
