LAGOS STATE GOVT DESTROYS 3,000 SEIZED OKADAS.

The Lagos State Government has commenced the process of crushing 3, 000 motorcycles, impounded from their owners for violating traffic law.

The Taskforce Chairman, Bayo Sulaiman, an Assistant Superintent of Police, said after the end of the dismantling exercise, the iron parts would be taken to the state Crushing Plant in Oshodi, where they would be crushed and recycled.

He said the action was to show that the government had stepped up its enforcement of the state traffic law, adding that the crushing of the okadas would serve as deterrent to other commercial motorcycle operators.
