Fashola Arrests Police Officer riding bike on prohibited route

Lagos State Governor

Governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Raj Fashola has arrested a policeman who was riding a bike along the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway. This route is among the 475 routes which the state government banned recently in the new traffic law. Most of the time, Nigerian security agencies flout laws because they will always have their way whenever they are caught by their colleagues who are enforcing the law. But Ebahon Johnson who must have passed through many enforcement agents along the ever busy route was unlucky as Governor Fashola who was coming back from his project inspection sighted and commanded his security details to get him arrested. He said his administration will not tolerate abuse of state laws no matter whose ox is gored.  He added that the police officer would be handed over to the commissioner of police for prosecution
