Lagos State Signage & Advertisement Agency, LASAA, on Saturday expressed shock over the viral video on social media of a queer display of semi-nude women in an outdoor Mobile advertising truck around the Lekki/Ikoyi toll gate.
In a statement by Mr. Mobolaji Sanusi, MD/CEO of LASAA, he said the agency has not licensed any outdoor mobile advert agency to display such crass immorality in the state.
He stated that while the agency is working on ascertaining the status of the truck with Lagos State plate number APP713XL, “we wish to state, without equivocation that, no outdoor mobile advert truck within the jurisdiction of our dear state is licensed to display such crass immorality of the calibre that the owner(s) of this truck exhibited on our roads over the weekend.”
The LASAA boss continued; “the government of Lagos State, under the leadership of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has zero tolerance for any slightest attempt by anyone, under any guise, to debase the moral fabric of our dear state.
“Nobody can hide under the guise of engaging in outdoor advertising business to display obscenity that is antithetical to our cherished cultural and moral values.
“The full weight of the law, as enshrined in the Agency’s extant law, will be meted on the company owning this erring outdoor mobile truck. We assure members of the public that the Agency shall henceforth scrutinize activities of mobile trucks to forestall a recurrence of such an avoidable obscenity.”
