Lagos state government crushes 1500 seized motorcycles

The Lagos state government on Monday, November 27, crushed 1500 seized motorcycles. 

The state Commissioner of Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, accompanied by the Permanent Secretary to the ministry, Wale Musa, inspected the crushing of the motorcycles at the premises of the Lagos State Taskforce. 

The Lagos state government shared photos on its X handle today and wrote;

“Commissioner for #lagosMOT1, Mr Oluwaseun Osiyemi with the Permanent Secretary, Mr Wale Musa, at the crushing of 1500 seized commercial motorcycles at the Lagos State Taskforce premises on Monday, 27th of November 2023.”

The state government banned the use of motorcycles in some parts of the state in 2022 and has since seized several motorcycles whose riders faulted the ban.
