By -

The Kwara State Signage and Advertisement Agency (KWASAA) will commence a comprehensive enforcement exercise across the three Senatorial Districts of Kwara State from Monday next week.

The General Manager of the Agency, Mr. Toba Adeyeye, ARPA, who disclosed this in Ilorin today, said the exercise became imperative following the indiscriminate display of billboards, banners, posters, signage and other branding materials across the State without approval from the Agency.

According to him, all political aspirants, political parties, business owners, corporate organizations, shop owners, religious bodies, individuals and advertising practitioners who have erected, pasted or displayed different kinds of signage and advertisement materials without obtaining relevant permits and paying prescribed fees are advised to visit the Agency's office in Ilorin between now and Friday, 7th November, 2026 to regularize their adverts.

Mr. Adeyeye stated that after the expiration of the grace period on Friday, the Agency's enforcement team will move across Kwara Central, Kwara North and Kwara South from Monday to remove all unapproved signage and advertisement materials and sanction defaulters in accordance with the law establishing the Agency.

He emphasized that KWASAA remains committed to ensuring a clean, orderly and decent environment while also ensuring compliance with signage regulations, and urged all stakeholders to cooperate with the Agency.
