Governor Sanwo-Olu Arrests Reckless Drivers In Lagos Express
Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has reportedly ordered the arrest of Okada riders plying one-way along Lagos-Badagry Expressway.
According to a further report, the Governor was on his way to an event when his convoy ran into the lawless okada riders who were driving against traffic and he ordered his security details to arrest them.
While several of them left their motorcycles and passengers upon sighting the convoy of Governor Sanwo-Olu, one of the offenders – a lance corporal in the Army, was arrested with his bike.
During the arrest, the soldier was heard telling the Governor he is an officer, but Sanwo-Olu in his reply, said that is the more reason for him to be arrested.
According to the Speaker, Sanwo-Olu is not like other governors who seal up the Assembly complex or who remove the roofs of Assembly buildings.
Obasa stated this in Abuja when Governor Sanwo-Olu visited the state lawmakers during their budget retreat.
The Speaker described the Governor as a leader, brother and performer and appreciated him for his support for the legislators.
Obasa promised that work will be expedited on the 2024 Lagos budget and it’s going to be a new year gift to the Governor and the people of the state.
