Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The Lagos State Government had on Monday, October 16 issued a seven-day (1 week) ‘Vacation Order’ to both motorists and commercial bus drivers operating on top of the bridges across the state.

Sola Giwa, the Special Adviser to the Lagos State Governor on Transportation, had said that the ‘Vacation Order’ was founded on the need to delete every violation blocking the free flow of traffic on bridges statewide.

Giwa had said that despite several warnings, commercial bus drivers aka ‘danfo drivers’ have kept flouting government directives leading to serious obstructions around these bridges with considerable negative impacts on the sturdiness of the bridges and traffic.

According to Giwa, the government erected bus terminals and garages for commercial activities in the state.

Giwa, according to a statement by a spokesman for the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority-LASTMA, Adebayo Taofiq had said:

“All motorist/commercial bus driver operating along ‘Apongbon’ and ‘Idumota’ (Cater) Bridges, ‘Elegbata:, ‘Ebute-Ero’ and ‘Ejalonibu’ as a matter of urgency must evacuate these areas as LASTMA would resume rigorous enforcement operation soon after the expiration of this ultimatum until zero tolerance is achieved across the state.”

Giwa also disclosed that the activities of the commercial bus drivers on the state bridges were contrary to provisions of the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law 2018 as amended.

After the expiration of the ultimatum, violators would be charged to the Lagos State Mobile Court for prosecutions.
