The Delta State Government has released the statement below warning residents of the state against killing protective animals.
The government warned that “anyone caught hunting protective animals within the state will be arrested and prosecuted.”The attention of the Delta State Government has been drawn to a virile online video where some uninformed youths were seen dragging a captured Manatee which is among protective sea animals.
The state government seriously frowns at the actions of these youth which negates the Bonn Convention on Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals. Let me re-emphasise that it is against the law for those in the habit of killing animals that are protected by the law.
