In a statement released by Commissioner for Information and Communications Paul Nsirim on Thursday May 7, residents of the mentioned local governments were told that vehicles seized during the lockdown period will be auctioned. 

Members of the public interested in buying such cars, were also asked to look out for the adverts on some national dailies. 

The statement reads; 

Rivers State Government hereby warns residents of Ward 20, Amadi-Ama in Port Harcourt Local Government Area and Mgbuosimini, Rumueme in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area to desist from flouting government directives on lockdown .
Government will deal decisively with the residents of these areas if they are found to default again.
Anyone parading exemption letters except the one issued by the Governor is doing so at his or her own risk as such permits are invalid.
