Gun recovered as LASTMA impounds vehicle for driving against traffic in Lagos

Operatives of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) on Thursday, November 24, 2022, recovered a pump action rifle inside an unregistered vehicle impounded for driving against traffic in Lagos.

Mr. Bolaji Oreagba, the General Manager of LASTMA disclosed that the impounded unregistered Black Honda vehicle was apprehended by the patrol team of the Agency while driving against traffic (one-way) around Sango-Tedo inward Abijo G.R.A along Lagos-Epe Expressway.

Mr. Oreagba disclosed further that policemen attached to LASTMA officers on routine patrol around Lagos-Epe Expressway were immediately alerted about the incident for confirmation.

“In no time that the owner/driver of the unregistered impounded vehicle (Honda) noticed that the gun (Pump Action) had been sighted inside his car he immediately took to his heel and was nowhere to be found anymore,” the General Manager said.

“The unregistered impounded vehicle (Honda car) with the recovered gun had been handed over to the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ilasan Police Station for further investigations,”

Mr Oreagba however appealed to members of the public to be security conscious as the year is coming to an end and must ensure that they reported any suspected strange movement within their environment to any nearby security agent of government.
