litigator:


I quite agree with you to the extent that if the govt didn’t charge the offenders before the requisite court and consequently obtained a forfeiture order, yesterday’s auction would amount to a nullity. Nothing short of daylight robbery.

It is a cardinal principle of law that the govt cannot be the accuser and the judge in its case.

Those who has their cars auctioned without a forfeiture order can approach the court and enforce their fundamental right.

Lagos state govt is not bigger than the law of the land.
How many people have the time and money to spend on such case?

Who is this MUMU lawyer?

In Lagos State when you drive against the traffic you risk the impounding of your vehicle and mental evaluation of the driver at Federal Neuro Psychiatric Hospital at Yaba and Aro. That's what the law says.

Driving against the traffic is against the Laws of Lagos State and not a constitutional matter nor a Fundamental Human Rights matter.

instead of talking, represent some of these people whose cars have been auctioned in a suit against the government. then we will find out of the law is constitutional or not.

Thank you Ini.

when I said this earlier, some good for nothing Idiotic myopic individuals here were attacking me, saying it's because of my hatred for Tinubu hence I am saying rubbish bla bla bla...like WTF? hatred for who? who's Tinubu I should hate? A man who has virtually all his things through crook means is who I am hating? a void and inconsequential human is who I am hating? I cannot belittle myself that much, because hating on Tinubu is belittling myself and doing him a great service.
You can violate the traffic law and come and be crying foul here. I hope LASTMA teach lesson one day, I doubt you live in Lagos
FYI, Lagos State Laws on Traffic violations will always take its course whether you like or not.
Prosecuting the one-way traffic offenders in the bigger court of law may even worsen their case and will waste their time.

I do not think this guy is aware of the procedure that leads to the auction of the confisticated vehicle. Maybe he needs to be sent back to where is coming from Uyo correctional center.

The wayward drivers are bad actors for flouting laws but the government can’t go rogue on them. That’s unconstitutional.

You should quit this arrogant display of ignorance. Anyone caught violating traffic laws was taken to court for prosecution. It is not Lastma of police that pronounced judgement on the violators.

That mobile Court shenanigan that pronounced a defendant guilty for using his phone at a checkpoint.

There is barely fair hearing at Mobile court

Very stupid move by lasg govt. Victimizing and tormenting the lowly citizens who labored hard to buy those properties. I'm very sure many govt emmisaries and allies would have disobeyed the traffic and go scot free,but its the average citizens that always bear the brunt. The lasg should be sued with this ludicrous move.

If it was in US,many of those stupid officials auctioning people's vehicles at ridiculous prices would have had their heads burst up by bullets from physco victims undecided

Omo, your mumu no be small!!! Just like the lawyer, you just talk without knowing what the law says about driving against traffic in Lagos State. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse....

You might tell us where in the US that auctioneers are shot?

Your comments are very ridiculous ...

This lawyer is as ignorant as most people making comments on this post and other posts concerning the auctions.

And like I always say, Twitter is NOT a real place. All he will get is likes and shares and a bunch of people to follow him to nowhere.

If he’s passionate about “the common man” as he pretends to, he should have made submissions as a lawyer to the public hearings (lots of them, even with commercial transport drivers who are the major victims) and made his argument.
He should have attended the debates at the House of Assembly when they bills was being debated and moving from stage to stage.

No he didn’t do all of that, but today he’s posting 8k portrait photo and typing on Twitter.

A law cannot be unconstitutional is it’s the law. The constitution is merely a set of laws passed by a parliament.

Before you make comments or support a comment as made by the lawyer, please try as much as possible to read what the Laws of Lagos State says about Driving against the traffic and what will happen to the vehicles.

Ignorance of the law is not an excuse!

Lawlessness cannot be condoned or allowed in Lagos State.

This is the habitual impunity and lawlessness that will befall Nigeria if Amoda gets anywhere near Aso Rock. All the criminality we have witnessed Tinubu orchestrate in Lagos will look like a child's play if we entrust Nigeria to his hands.

That man is impunity personified.

Everyone want to be expert on what is constituctional or not. This is why Nigeria is not working because nobody want to follow the rules. If this people follow the rules, am sure their car will not be taking away. Nigeria is one country in the world where the citizens do what they feel like regardless of the rules set, not obey traffic rules, traffic light, stop signs, driving against traffic and all manner of offences whether they kill people or not....all they care about is for themselves.

Clearly you've not left your village before! In Lagos must roads don't even have road signs, it's like a trap, they'll never warn you, next thing is to jump into your vehicle. I and my friends visited a new area in Lagos recently, as a first timer in the area road signs could have easily helped us navigate easily but there was none! The next thing they jumped into our car, called us different names from, Yahoo boys to criminals from criminals to Traffic offenders! Everything about us signifies that we are none of those! But trust your law enforcement officers in Nigeria. If not for the fact that we had money to wet their hands maybe they would have auctioned our car too.

This is lagos where so many plle drive like that have extra lives and don't care about their safety or the safety of other road users.
Auctioning the cars may be extreme, but if you can't do the time don't do the crime.
