OSUN State House of Assembly has passed a bill prohibiting smoking in public places into law.
While passing the bill into law, the Speaker, Honourable Adejare Bello, appealed to the media to assist in promoting healthy living by sensitising the public to the dangers in tobacco smoking.
Honourable Bello said though smoking was a matter of choice, but the government must be able to protect non-smokers from dangers attached to it, hence the need for the enactment of the law.
Entitled Osun State Prohibition of Smoking in Public Places Bill, 2009, the bill prohibited smoking in any part of an enclosed or partially enclosed public place or workplace.

They most be out of their mind. Apart from wasting their time attending to such issue they should have it at the back of their mind that its like trying to kill a fly with a sledge hammer. Its none of their business becos banning it wont add any colorful development to the dilapidated state.
