LUCKY LAWAL

The authorities of the Lagos State Police Command have suspended the ongoing operation velvet for a period of one month with effect from today Tuesday 30th October, 2018, to enable motor vehicle and motorcycle owners time to regularise their documents. 

The operation, aimed at enforcing all relevant traffic laws to restore orderliness on our roads and highways, was put on hold for a month period based on the appeal by the Executive Governor of the state, His Excellency, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode and the Honourable Members of the State House of Assembly.

However, the Command warned all road users that the grace period should not be interpreted as a period of lawlessness on the city roads; it is a time allowed to get the vehicle documents and necessary permits together.
In a statement released by CSP Chike Oti, Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State, it also warned that the Command will continue their enforcement of laws against driving on BRT lanes, parking at unauthorised places, causing gridlocks and driving against traffic (one way).
