Enugu State Enforces Ban on Political Posters with Fine
The Enugu State Structures for Signage and Advertisement Agency (ENSSAA), led by General Manager Francis Aninwike, has reinforced the existing ban on the display of political posters across Enugu State. This reminder comes as political activities ramp up in anticipation of the local government elections scheduled for September 26, 2026, and the 2027 general elections.
The ban, established under the Enugu State Structures for Signage and Advertisement Agency Law No. 12 of 2016, prohibits all forms of poster display, including campaign materials, on public and private surfaces. Aninwike emphasized that violators, including political parties, candidates, and supporters, face a fine of up to ₦50 million.
The agency also cautioned printers against producing posters for unauthorized display, warning that they could face investigations and sanctions if found complicit in violations. ENSSAA aims to maintain the aesthetic integrity of the state by preventing the defacement of public and private properties.
