What's Govt. Doing About Incessant Menace Of Stealing From Road Users In Lagos by Medley(m): 7:38am On Jul 10, 2020
It's alarming the cases of road users - Motorist and pedestrian - being robbed of their possession in Lagos with no limit to the time this occurs.

In broad day light, very early in the morning and at dawn no one is safe any longer.

The thievery and the temerity at how its done with no regards that they will be any security operative to stop the operation is bewildering.

What then is the government doing about this

It first started of with road users phones and necklace being snatched either why trying to board a bus, or in crowded locations now it has festered to the level where the possessions of people in a car are forcefully taken at gunpoint when held in traffic - once they notice the use of phones inside the car.

No road user is excempted as a target, commercial or private, in most cases its the private car that's the main target.

This robbers come with guns, and machete and use them when road users are held in traffic.

A visit to any of MTN, GLO, AIRTEL or 9 Mobile's office will make you wonder when you begin to hear different people tell their stories of how they were robbed of their phone, and other personal effects.

It doesn't end there as this robbers also has in their possession POS machine which they forcefully make their victims use their ATMs for transactions until their account is emptied.

Please avoid late night journeys if you can, avoid use of phones in traffic, try as much as possible to take a bus at the park.

For now we have to device our means to safe ourselves until government stop this Menace.
