The Lagos State Police Command says operatives of its Rapid Response Squad (RRS) on Thursday impounded 85 in continuation of the clampdown on motorcycles plying prohibited routes in the state.
In a Friday statement, the command said the RRS operatives were supported by the Enforcement Team of the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA).
“The areas visited by the team include: Ojodu Berger, Aguda (Ikeja), Iju Road, Agege, Iyana Ipaja Bridge, Abule Egba and Ogba.
“The operation was led by the Commander, Rapid Response Squad (RRS), CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi.
“In a similar operation two weeks ago, the team led CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi impounded 257 motorcycles.
“The Lagos Commissioner of Police, CP Adegoke Fayoade has assured that the exercise would be sustained until there is compliance with Lagos State Transport policy on motorcycles.
“He added that the Command would not fold its arms and allow recalcitrant individuals to flout state’s traffic law without consequences,” the statement read in part.
