The Lagos State Taskforce has impounded 220 commercial bikes popularly known as Okada along Victoria Island, Bourdillon, Falomo, Ikeja, Abeokuta Expressway, Ojodu Berger and Fagba area of the Lagos State.
The Chairman of the Agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye, who led the exercise, described the activities of the stubborn okada operators as deplorable and vowed to carry out more traffic enforcement exercises in the coming weeks till they are completely taken off the Highways and restricted.
Like the past seizures, the impounded 220 commercial bikes (Okadas) will be crushed at the Lagos State Taskforce yard, Alausa, Ikeja.
The exercise was part of a week-long cleanup along the Regional Road in Lekki, which saw the demolition of illegal structures and shanties across the entire stretch of the Road.
In a statement, CSP Jejeloye described the clearing out exercise as a step carried out by the Agency to restore the environment of the Metropolis to its original master plan.
The Chairman assured Lagosians that the activities and operations carried out by the State Government are in the best interest of the citizenry who deserve to live in a safe, serene and habitable environment.
“Shanties are breeding place for criminal elements who come out at night to rob and destroy, therefore they have no place in a Metropolitan City like Lagos.
“We will ensure that there is no more breeding ground for criminals to run to and by so doing, reduce criminality in the State to the barest minimum”, he stated.
