Plateau State police announce a temporary ban on commercial tricycle (Keke NAPEP) operations in Jos-Bukuru and other major towns for the Eid El Maulud celebration. The restriction is set to begin on Tuesday, with the police stating it is intended to support security and ensure a smooth public holiday period.
Both outlets report that the police issue the directive through official channels, citing the need to manage movement during the festivities. Vanguard notes the ban applies to the Jos-Bukuru metropolis and other key towns statewide, while Daily Post also describes the measure as a statewide public-holiday restriction for Eid El Maulud. Daily Post further attributes the announcement to a statement released by the Plateau Police Public Relations Officer, Alfred Alabo.
There are minor differences in phrasing and timing details between the reports, but they agree on the core point: the police restrict Keke NAPEP tricycle operations temporarily for the Eid El Maulud period across Plateau State’s major urban areas.
