Share

The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) says a total of 10,455 traffic offenders have so far been arrested in Lagos between January and February this year.

FRSC Lagos Sector Commander, Mr Olusegun Ogungbemide said; “In January 2021, the number of offenders stood at 4,686 with 5,258 number of offences.

“In February 2021, the number of offenders was 4,399 while the number of offences was 5,197.”

Ogungbemide told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in an interview on Sunday that the FRSC was carrying out its operation in Lagos with care to avoid unnecessary tension in view of the sensitive nature of the state.

“We have to carry out our mandate of removing rickety vehicles and reduce accident on the nation’s highway”, he said.

The FRSC official however urged motorists to obtain their drivers’ licences, saying that the Corps would continue to arrest drivers without valid licences.
