Speaking, the Registrar of the State High Court, Abdullahi Bayero said the twenty-one magistrates will be designated within the metropolis, as they are saddled with the responsibility of enforcing Covid 19 safety protocols and penalizing those who flaunt the protocols.
Bayero asked the residents to observe all Covid 19 safety protocols, as defaulters will be fined or imprisoned, according to the discretion of the Magistrates.
The State’s Covid 19 marshals are already sensitizing the public on the need to observe the safety protocols.
