“Our officials are going to be alert during this period and we are deployed at different locations in Badagry and Seme areas.
“Our men will pay special attention to Iyafin, Gbaji, Aradagun and Mowo area of Badagry because they are sensitive places, but that doesn’t mean that we will not cover every other place.

Bakare advised motorists to check the state of their vehicles before embarking on trips.
“There will be a lot of vehicular movement, so, people must ensure that they check the state of their vehicles before embarking on any trip.
“The way you take care of your car is the same way the vehicle will treat you so people must ensure that their vehicles remain in a perfect condition,” he said. (NAN)
