Governor Sanwoolu of Lagos state is not resting on his oars in ensuring a smooth-running Lagos rid of traffic offenders.
Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Tuesday ordered the arrests of men riding motorbikes against traffic.
The governor was on his way to the Ojo campus of the Lagos State University (LASU), for the inauguration of the Femi Gbajabiamila Conference Centre, when the incident occurred.
While plying the Lagos-Badagry expressway in a convoy, Sanwo-Olu encountered the motorcyclists and immediately ordered their arrests.
The video showed many of the riders and passengers abandoning their motorcycles and fleeing as the governor’s security operatives gave chase.
A few motorcycle riders escaped while a handful were apprehended.
While being arrested and taken away by security operatives, one of the offenders claimed to be a soldier.
This got Sanwoolu angry as he charged at him with rage.
“Put him there, let your father come and rescue you,” the governor said.
“I am a soldier Oga sir,” said the motorcyclist.

“Get in there. Useless boy. You are telling me you are a soldier. Lock him up!!”
