In the oath on the side of the application, committed to by one Minister Emmanuel Donatus, the deponent affirmed that he and other administrators had no method for food separated from the matter of Okada.
They asked the public authority to confine Okada procedure on significant roadways to “endorsed regions” rather than prohibiting their tasks.
