Joe Abah Reacts To Interception Of Truck With 123 Men, 48 Bikes By Taskforce by Babtech001(op): 3:26pm On Aug 31, 2019

Former Director-General of the Bureau of Public Service Reforms, Joe Abah, has criticised Lagos authorities over the interception of a truck on Friday carrying 123 men and 48 motorcycles.

According to the Lagos State Environment Sanitation and Special Offenses Taskforce, the men were coming from Jigawa State.

The truck was seized at Agege area of the state following a tip-off by members of the public who raised security concern about the manner with which the occupants of the truck conducted themselves.

After the interception, the truck and its occupants were moved to the office of the taskforce in Oshodi for interrogation.

Dr Abah, in a tweet on Saturday, questioned the move, saying the government was playing politics with the interception.

“‘Illegal mass movement’? 123 people? What if they had come by air? How many people are on flights to Lagos every hour? Is it because they are poor? The things that damage our country the most are those things we initially laugh about or play politics with. #ThisIsWrong!” he said.

According to the chairman of Lagos State Taskforce, Yinka Egbeyemi, some of the men said they came to Lagos in search of greener pastures.

Egbeyemi said that the Lagos Police Command had directed that a fact-finding panel be constituted to profile the detained occupants of the truck, but he added that nothing incriminating was found on them apart from the motorcycles.

Lagos is the hardest place to survive as a human. No coordination everything is just scattered.

Inter state movement isn't a crime in Nigeria

But the number would have raised red flags in any other state too

Looking at the recent crisis with RUGA , so one can blame the authorities or accuse them of being tribalistic

They were simply being careful

Cheers

We have people from Niger republic, Mali, Chad riding Okada allover naija just because they can speak Hausa or fulani and more worrisome because Nigeria does not have a central database to determine who is a citizen and who is not.

We've been hearing news on how foreigners are causing mayhem all over the middlebelt region. We don't want that down south. People want to sound political correct until chaos starts in their neighborhood.

We have a porous border and we can't let unverified/undocumented people move around our neighborhood. Most, if not all the bike riders sleep on their bikes at night or at empty shops. Having too many of them around doesn't seem safe to me. E no dey hard for terrorism to spread ọ.

Don't mind him. How do we know if these aren't Boko Haram members being sneaked into Lagos? Abeg interrogate them. If they are clean with no ulterior motives for entering the state then they'll be let off

“‘Illegal mass movement’? 123 people? What if they had come by air?

Joblessness is very bad, that is why Abah is desperately seeking attention.
Is it really possible that Abbah don't know that people require proper documentation
to use air transport?

If they came by air, we will be certain that they are not illegal immigrants.

It's not profiling the poor. It's profiling abokki Fulani elements who are now the most ruthless violent crime perpetrators in Nigeria.
