The Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Enforcement Unit, known as the Lagos State Taskforce, seized about 70 vehicles for violating the Lagos State traffic law. The impoundment was a result of coordinated operations targeting areas where commercial transporters’ reckless driving led to traffic congestion and public inconvenience. The Chairman of the Taskforce, CSP Adetayo Akerele, emphasized the agency’s commitment to enforcing environmental and traffic laws without leniency. He urged motorists to comply with regulations to enhance environmental cleanliness, safety, and overall public security. The enforcement actions took place at various locations like Okuta road junction in Bariga, Oba Akran road by Kodesoh under the bridge, Ikeja, and Ladipo by Five Star, along Oshodi-Apapa expressway. CSP Akerele emphasized that traffic congestion is a result of driver recklessness and should not be tolerated.
