Board establishes more courts for effective trial of offenders

Abuja Environmental Protection Board (AEPB) says it has established 13 extra mobile courts for mass trial of defaulters in the FCT.

Mr Braimah Osilama, Director of the board, said this in a statement signed by the Deputy Director of the AEPB, Mrs Janet Peni, on Thursday in Abuja.

Osilama said that the mobile courts were initially eight in number but has been increased to 13, adding that the essence of the establishment of the courts was to enhance the trial of any defaulter as another round of mass trial of defaulters of waste service charges commenced in the various mobile courts established.
