LASTMA Fighting Passengers And Driver At Obanikoro Bus-stop by sentix(m): 1:55pm On Sep 29, 2012
This happened yesterday and I sent a message to the provost of LASTMA but has refused to do anything about it

A gang of lastma officers are currently fighting passengers at obanikoro bus stop in front of [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]zenith bank collecting the key from the driver and driving the bus dangerously almost causing an accident.

They were lead by one olawaye g who wears a coat of arm as rank insignia.

Their vehicle with reg no ep 285 app is marked mile 12 to cms monitoring task force. Lastma officers should take note of this lawlessness. A guy who warned the lastma not to drive the bus was promptly arrested and driven away.

Pls forward

Pls give us a more comprehensive story. What led to the "fight"?? The picture you posted doesn't look like a fight. While I'm not trying to defend LASTMA, I expect the OP to state clearly what ACTUALLY transpired...

God Bless Seun!
God Bless Nairaland!!
God Bless Nigeria!!!

I think the major reason dis tread was opened is to create awareness of this particular issue to the public then know what individual judgment would be.it wil be very stupid of anyone to start condemning the LASTMA or the opposition with the none detailed post by the original poster.
@ OP:pls next time give a detailed paragraph of the incident.

This is why I always celebrate when the soldiers start beating those thugs. Stewpid rogues who have been empowered by the state to steal, extort and destroy.what right do they have to arrest a bystander who has only directed them not to take the law into their hands? May they all die some shameful death. Eediots.

@OP, What was the driver's offence? Don't tell me the driver did not do anything. Even though LASTMA guys can act funny @ times, we must ßξ objective ‎​Άnd strive to get sufficient details before jumping into conclusions...

What the driver did just might be obvious. There is no busstop in front of Zenith at Obanikoro. He must have stopped to pick passengers. If you notice from the pix, the LASTMA pickup is on the other side of the service lane where the driver was accosted.

However, this does not warrant any physical attack by the LASTMA officials. But then I can also bet that the driver tried to resist being arrested. With the Police, resisting arrest can be combatted using reasonable force. I don't know about LASTMA sha.

Did the driver actually break the law?
Re: LASTMA Fighting Passengers And Driver At Obanikoro Bus-stop by sentix(m): 4:23pm On Sep 29, 2012
The bus stopped at the bus stop at obanikoro and they told the driver to get down and give them the keys! We inquired what happened and were told when we get tired we will get down from the bus. Only for the lastma officer to start the bus and moved while people were coming down creating a scene. One man then snapped a picture of the lastma officer while driving. This got them really angry and threatened to deal with the man. This led to a serious argument between the passengers and lastma officers. Their leader one Olawaye G. just crossed the road and went back to their vehicle refusing to do anything about it.

I took the picture before the argument started. When one man told them u have been told never to drive any arrested vehicle.

probably the driver may have caused an obstruction where he parked or they just needed money.
Re: LASTMA Fighting Passengers And Driver At Obanikoro Bus-stop by kenmaro: 4:35pm On Sep 29, 2012
I have thought about the idea of a lastma officer arresting a traffic offender and then the next the lastma officer does is jump into the drivers sit of the arrested vehicle and start driving without knowing if the car is in good condition or not getting use to the driving patterns of the car. These could be hazardous to other road users as there is a possibility of brake failure or an accident as a result of poor handling of the car by the lastma officer. Lagos state govt should look into this practise by some lastma officials so to control the rate of accidents caused by lastma officials always. Imagine the lastma man driving a danfo bus without knowing the braking distance being managed by the danfo driver. May God save us from the hands of some agbero-lastma officers that are in the LASTMA.

Irrespective of what Fashola and his propagandists may want people to think, the fact is there is far more to free traffic in Lagos than DRACONIAN LAWS. The weakest link in Lagos traffic mgt efforts is the LASTMA and the formely-popular- now-unpopular govt.
Rather than send drivers for mental tests, Fashola should be giving quality doses of psychiatric medications to his LASTMA men as their lawlessness- madness is getting out of hand!

Did he park where he wasn't supposed to??
OP, please quit being a cry-baby and tell us in plain english the driver's offence.
If as a driver you at least respect urself a little by obeying simple traffic rule, you'd be able to keep LASTMA away (at least to an extent)
Re: LASTMA Fighting Passengers And Driver At Obanikoro Bus-stop by GARRIx7(m): 6:00pm On Sep 29, 2012
Some fools break traffic laws and come to nairaland to cry and solicit for undeserved sympathy.... cool cool cool cool
At this point, I can conclude that the driver contravened a traffic law and was arrested by LASTMA. The OP is trying to seek sympathy for a driver who has no regard for traffic laws.
@OP, next time you are in a vehicle, encourage your driver to obey simple traffic laws.

sometimes i wonder how some people reason. Even if the driver breaks traffic law then the LASTMA guy should be judge in his own court?.. there are due process and not using force which is becoming the trade mark of LASTMA officials ...
