The Lagos taskforce announced in the early hours of Monday that it has ‘confiscated’ seventy vehicles for violation of the Lagos traffic law as amended.
Explaining the conditions in which the vehicles were seized and why they were seized, Director of Public Affairs, Gbadeyan Abdulraheem said in a statement, “The vehicles were impounded in coordinated operations carried out at target locations where reckless traffic violations by commercial transporters cause avoidable traffic congestion and general public nuisance.
“Chairman of the Lagos State Taskforce, CSP Adetayo Akerele said in the report that the agency under his stewardship will not spare violators of environmental and traffic laws of the state any breathing space, adding that, only when citizens cooperate and obey relevant laws, will environmental sanity, safety and security of the citizenry can be improved and preserved generally.
“The Agency will not tolerate or surrender to any indiscipline perpetuated by any lawless motorist as traffic logjam is not natural, not created by God, but a product of recklessness on the road.”
