2025 FCT Halts Scavenging, Shuts Pantaker Operations\u00a0<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has prohibited scavengers from operating within the territory.<\/p>\n

The Commissioner of Police in the FCT, Olatunji Disu, revealed the ban while addressing reporters following the FCT Security Committee Meeting in Abuja on Monday.<\/p>\n

Disu stated that scavengers are only permitted to work on dumpsites situated on the outskirts of the city and in the suburbs.<\/h2>\n

\u201cAll security agencies have been instructed to ensure compliance with this order, starting from January 14,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n

The commissioner also mentioned that the operation of pantaker markets has been suspended for two weeks, commencing from Tuesday across the FCT.<\/p>\n

Pantaker markets involve the sale of secondhand items and scrap metal, including furniture and home appliances.<\/h3>\n

He elaborated that the two-week suspension aims to enable security agencies to profile the pantaker operators.<\/p>\n

This, he noted, will guarantee that only legitimate operators remain in business at pantaker markets throughout the FCT.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that the committee has decided that anyone detained for vandalizing public infrastructure will be prosecuted and tried for economic sabotage, and potentially for attempted murder.<\/h4>\n

He emphasized that the penalties for such actions typically result in community service or fines, prompting offenders to reoffend.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sanctions imposed are so minimal that we observe a cycle of recidivism among these criminals.<\/h5>\n

\u201cThe actions of the vandals pose a serious risk to the lives of FCT residents because removing manhole covers can lead to fatal accidents for drivers at night,\u201d Disu stated.<\/p>\n

According to him, vandalizing public infrastructure undermines the collective property belonging to all residents of the FCT.<\/h6>\n
