Ondo Ponmo seller collapses in court during arraignment after discovery of feces in her processing centre

A ponmo seller collapsed in court during her arraignment in court following her arrest over the alleged discovery of human faeces at her processing centre.   The incident comes days after the Chairman of Akure South Local Government Area, Hon. Gbenga Fasua, ordered the immediate closure of a popular ponmo supply store on Igboliki Street in Akure following an environmental sanitation inspection that reportedly uncovered two buckets containing human faeces on the premises.   The discovery was made during the October edition of the monthly environmental sanitation exercise conducted on Saturday, when Fasua led a monitoring team through Oke Aro, Iro and Igboliki streets to assess residents’ and businesses’ compliance with environmental sanitation regulations.   According to information from the inspection, the ponmo business had reportedly operated in the area for more than 21 years.   The operator, who was present during the inspection, reportedly identified herself as the President of the Ponmo Sellers’ Association in Ondo State.   Following the discovery, Fasua ordered the immediate closure of the premises and directed the disposal of all ponmo products at the shop.   He also ordered that the operator be prosecuted in accordance with applicable local and state environmental laws.   The businesswoman was subsequently arrested and brought before a court in Akure on Tuesday for arraignment.    She reportedly collapsed during the court proceedings.          View this post on Instagram            A post shared by Lindaikejiblog (@lindaikejiblogofficial)     The post Ondo Ponmo seller collapses in court during arraignment after discovery of feces in her processing centre appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
