 SENATE ADJOURNS EMERGENCY PLENARY ON STATE POLICE OVER REP’S DEATH. The Senate today suspended consideration of the highly anticipated State Police Bill and all other legislative business at its emergency plenary session to honour the memory of Hon. Yaya Tongo, a member of the House of Representatives, whose death cast a sombre mood over the National Assembly. The upper chamber had reconvened from recess amid expectations that lawmakers would accelerate action on the proposed constitutional amendment seeking to establish state police across the federation, a measure widely seen as a major step in the ongoing effort to reform Nigeria’s security architecture. However, proceedings were cut short after Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced the death of Tongo, who represented the Kwami/Funakaye Federal Constituency of Gombe State in the House of Representatives. Hon. Tongo passed away at Nizamiye Hospital in Abuja on June 12, 2026, following a brief illness. His death triggered a...

 LASPA ISSUES FINAL NOTICE ON Y2025 PARKING LEVIES 


… Vows To Commence Enforcement 


The Lagos State Parking Authority (LASPA), has issued a final call to defaulting parking operators in the State to pay up the year 2025 parking levies, warning that enforcement would soon commence.


The General Manager, LASPA, Mrs. Adebisi Adelabu, gave the warning on Thursday during an interaction with the press on the activities of the Parking Authority.


She noted that Demand Notices were issued for 2025 to all parking operators registered with LASPA earlier in the year, with payment expected within seven days of receipt of the notice, observing that some organisations are yet to comply.


Mrs. Adelabu emphasised that the parking levy is not a discretionary but a legal requirement enshrined in the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law (LSTSRL 2018), adding that all defaulters of the 2025 parking levies will be penalised.


She further noted that the funds generated from the parking levies are critical to ensuring a sustainable parking management, maintaining structured parking systems, and improving urban mobility across the state.


"Demand Notices were dispatched to all relevant corporate bodies well in advance. The expectation is clear: payment must be made within seven days of receiving the notice," Mrs. Adelabu stated.


Continuing, she said, "Regrettably, some organisations are yet to remit their 2025 parking fees despite this ample notification. We must emphasise that this window for compliance is now closing."


Mrs. Adelabu warned that LASPA would immediately commence state-wide monitoring and enforcement exercises on the 2025 parking levies, noting that organisations operating parking facilities within their premises or utilising building setbacks for parking without valid payment receipts will also be classified as defaulters and sanctioned accordingly.


She therefore advised all stakeholders who are yet to pay the year 2025 parking levies or regularise their status to do so without further delay to avoid enforcement and the subsequent penalty.
