Kano: Ganduje govt shuts rice company for ‘pollution, aggravating coronavirus patients’

The Governor Umar Ganduje administration has sealed Tiamin Rice Limited, located along Zaria road in Kano.

Getso confirmed the closure and explained that what the state government did was “normal routine action”. “After some time, we got the second complaint from another set of people in the same community, that the company was still polluting the area. They were demanding its closure. Our staff did an in-depth assessment and discovered that some machine components were spoilt and adding to the level of pollution in higher magnitude, compared to what was recorded previously. We issued another Abatement Notice and told them to make repairs.

But Tiamin Rice Limited, in a statement by Aliyu Ibrahim, the Deputy Managing Director, has alleged a witch-hunt. “Although the Rice Processors Association of Nigeria , which we are a member, has been exempted from the lockdown order by the state government, we nevertheless halted our production for one week to put in robust internal measures against the spread of coronavirus.
