Abuja: Rescuing Capital city from car marts
7 years ago(FILES) This file photo taken on January 30, 2009 shows unsold new cars are parked at Grimsby Docks, Grimsby, north-east England on January 30, 2009. Leading car firms have been hit hard by the recession with cuts in production and widespread job losses. Britain said on July 26, 2017 it will outlaw the sale of new diesel and petrol cars and vans from 2040 in a bid to cut air pollution but environmental groups said the proposals did not go far enough. Environment minister Michael Gove announced the move as part of the government's keenly-awaited £3 billion ($3.9 billion, 3.4 billion euro) air pollution plan, which will demand that councils propose measures by March next year to reduce nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels. / AFP PHOTO / Andrew YATES
