We write to formally draw your attention to the indiscriminate towing of vehicles in areas not marked ‘NO PARKING’ zones across the state and particularly within Benin metropolis.
As a coalition of civil rights groups in Edo that sues for equality and fairness in the society, we have been inundated with several complaints from members of the public of the towing of their vehicles by officials of your agency in areas warning signs are not placed.
It will amount to injustice, lack of fairness, oppression, immorality and extortion when the agency has not warned motorists before applying punitive steps.
The operations of your tow vans suggest that, it has to do with a daily targets that must be met.
It is our highest admonition that the agency or its overseeing ministry should provide adequate warning signs in designated areas before enforcement can be carried out on such areas.
It is only when this is done that the agency can enforce wrongful parking of vehicles in unauthorized areas.
We would want the contents of this letter to be taken seriously as anything short of the recommendation may be met with stiff resistance. He that must come to equity must do so with clean hands.
