“Our preliminary investigation shows that it is an act of negligence from the company as they did not do the needful as regards the truck.

“As a regulatory body which is in control of all these matters, we believe there is a need for us to conduct safety and audit tests on all their trucks to prevent future occurrence. In doing so, we have to shut down the premises and after that all other procedures will follow.”

Akintunde said the company would be unsealed as soon as all necessary steps and precautions have been put in place.

He maintained that as a business-friendly state, the government does not take joy in sealing business premises perpetually.        (vitalnewsngr.com)
