Oyo State Government has announced restriction of vehicular movement on Saturday May 22.
According to the state government, the restriction of movement of persons and goods is between 6am and 3pm on Saturday.
This is due to elections that will hold across the 33 Local Government in the state.
Secretary to the State Government, Olubamiwo Adeosun, in a statement on Friday stated this.
He said the restriction would also help officials of the Oyo State Independent Electoral Commission (OYSIEC) to conduct the poll without hindrance.
Adeosun urged residents to freely participate in the election and remain law-abiding.
“Only persons on essential duties would be exempted from the restriction order,” the statement added.
The public was advised to comply with the instruction to avoid any form of brushes with security operatives.
“Indigenes and residents are enjoined to go about their duties peacefully while they go out to cast their votes in line with prescribed guidelines of OYSIEC,” Adeosun added.
