The Ministry of Public Works is again appealing to vendors along the Kingston Seawall, to desist from illegally connecting electricity to their businesses.

This practice is both unlawful and dangerous, the ministry said in a press release yesterday.

Only recently, the ministry was again forced to confront a vendor who has been committing this act in spite of repeated warnings. The vendor had connected an illegal wire from his stall to the nearby street lamp pole, the ministry said.
