She also assured that the agents would work with the park managers, and all stakeholders to ensure a seamless process and orderliness in the system.
In his remark, the representative of the commissioner for works and transportation, Mr. Bolaji Oyekanmi while shedding light on the essence of the training, cautioned illegal revenue collectors to desist from the act or face the full wrath of the law.
