The Lagos State Government has intensified its crackdown on hoodlums accused of harassing, intimidating and extorting motorists along major roads in the state.
The state Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, disclosed this in a post on X on Sunday, saying operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) carried out a midnight enforcement operation along the Lekki-Ajah Expressway.
According to Wahab, the operation targeted miscreants allegedly involved in harassing motorists and other road users, extorting money from them and damaging vehicles when their demands were rejected.
“The Lagos State Rapid Response Squad (RRS) conducted a midnight enforcement operation along the Lekki–Ajah Expressway to apprehend miscreants and hoodlums who have been constituting a nuisance and posing a threat to motorists and other road users,” he said.
Wahab said the state government would sustain intelligence-led operations against individuals whose activities threaten public safety and disrupt movement across the state.
