Lagos State Police Commissioner Explains How A Hoodlum
Almost Slapped Him While On Duty
While speaking at a press briefing yesterday on the challenges of
managing traffic in Lagos, the Lagos State Commissioner of
Police, Fatai Owoseni, explained how some motorists at the
Anthony end of Ikorodu road attacked his convoy while he was
leading his men to arrest traffic robbers who had robbed a
family but where delayed by a flat tyre. He said the hoodlums
(motorists) accosted them and asked them to move their
vehicles and made the robbers escape in the process. He also
explained how one of them threatened to slap him after he
introduced himself as the Lagos State Commissioner of Police
and that they were trying to arrest traffic robbers. Though the
robbers escaped, the hoodlums were all arrested, hear him;
“A family had just been robbed at the Anthony end of the
expressway while they were changing the deflated tyre of their
vehicle. As I and policemen from the Anthony division were
going to arrest the hoodlums, about six motorists waylaid my
car and said we were preventing their movement. They forcefully
removed the side mirror of my car.
“When I alighted from my vehicle to introduce myself as the CP
of Lagos State, one of them rushed forward and said he was
going to slap me. They had to grab his hand. In the end,
although the hoodlums ran away, I did not let the motorists get
away. Continue….
“We have continued to put strategies in place for crime and
traffic management. Between October 27 and November 12, we
arrested 21 suspected robbers, and 13 of them are traffic
robbers. Most of them were arrested during the police’s
response to distress calls.
“From the suspects, we recovered 11 double-barrelled guns,
pump action guns and live ammunition. Some of them have
been charged to court, while others are still helping with
investigation.”
He also encouraged Lagosans to report crimes tot he police first
and not on social media. Owoseni dded that some of the
property had been returned to the owners who were identified.
