Mr Tajudeen Agbede, the Lagos State Chairman of NURTW, made this known on Monday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
Agbede said that the union has set up a task force to enforce the ban in various motor parks across the state.
“We don’t want to experience any form of accident on the highways as a result of alcoholic drinks during the festive period.
“We have four units of the task force going round the motor parks, at least three times a week, to enforce the ban on sales of alcoholic drinks within and outside our parks,” he said.
The union chairman said the ban was not only meant for the festive seasons, adding that it would continue after the festivities.
