Some of the passengers arrested



By Kazeem Ugbodaga

The Lagos State Police Command on Tuesday said 10 inter-state luxury buses were impounded and 150 passengers arrested in the State for violating restriction of movement during curfew period.

Bala Elkana, the Command’s Public Relations Officer, said on 18 July, 2020 at about 2300 hours, operatives of Lagos State Police Command on enforcement of ban on inter-states non-essential travel during the curfew hours, intercepted 10 luxury buses with 150 passengers travelling out of Lagos State to various destinations in the Northern and Eastern regions of Nigeria.

“The drivers and passengers were arrested, while the buses were impounded. The violators were arraigned in Lagos State Special Offences (Mobile) Court.

“The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Hakeem Odumosu warned commercial vehicle operators and motor parks against violating inter-states movement restriction orders during the curfew hours.

“Passengers are also warned against non essential interstates travels during the curfew hours,” Elkana said.

Nothing was said to be done to the company who provided the service. The passengers could have opted out no doubt however, why not sir the company that flouted the order?

There is too much hunger in the land to deprive people of their only source of livelihood.

Arrest them, fine them not impound in this hard times.

These law enforcers seize foreign rice in Lagos but go to IMO to sell them. Impond bikes in Oshodi go to Apapa to sell them, confisticate supposed stolen moneys but share it amongst themselves.

They are mad angry
The passengers got to the park before the curfew
They all had their face masks on
They were going to travel out of the state, without interacting/interfacing with Lagosians
Lockdown on Interstate boundaries are lifted.

So what's their offense?
We have people breaching the local curfew, even getting to the extent of local thieves attacking neighbourhoods, they can't see those. In fact, they are madder than mad

10k would have saved them this embarrassment. A lot of busses passed through same route without issues. Its Nigeria, we are all corrupt, being uncorrupt is corruption by itself

Those transporters that loves money like no man's business knows nothing that is not money related...those greedy mofos milked commuters badly during the interstate movement ban.

I have nothing to say..but the criminals they call police should take their own share from them.

I believe this all boils down to poor information from the governments
Federal Govt: We have removed the ban on inter-state movement
State Govt: The ban has not been utterly removed. There are curfew hours

Set of confused people. Only the poor suffer from their misinformation
