In continuation of government efforts in ensuring sanity on Lagos roads and to get rid of defiant motorcyclists on restricted routes across the State, the operatives of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences (Enforcement) Unit (Taskforce) over the weekend impounded another 100 notorious illegal commercial motorcycles.

The Chairman of the Agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye who led the enforcement exercise disclosed that these 100 notorious illegal commercial motorcycles were impounded around Navy Town at Alakija, 2nd Rainbow and Festac Town.

He maintained that the enforcement operation was carried out to halt the abuse of traffic laws by motorcycle operators.

According to him, “The discouraging high statistic of motorcycle accidents and the compelling need to enhance safety on Lagos roads led to the promulgation of the Lagos State Transport Sector Reformed Law 2018”.

CSP Jejeloye said, apart from criminals using these motorcycles as a means to escape after criminal activities, the influx into the State of these illegal motorcyclists without any traceable address and valid means of identification remains a huge Security and Safety threat to residents.
