He warned the perpetrators to desist from such act or they would be made to face the full wrath of the law.
The Oba of Lagos, in a statement from the Palace, was quoted as saying that he had observed for sometime the unwholesome development and wished to put an end to it by alerting the general public.
Akiolu, according to the statement, strongly believes that such conduct would undoubtedly obstruct free flow of traffic and aid crime and criminality in those areas.
The monarch had, therefore, alerted the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Owoseni; Director of Department of State Services, Mr. Adekunle Ajanaku, as well as the Executive Secretaries of Lagos Island Local Government and Lagos Island Local Council Development Authority to move against the perpetrators of the illegal act.
Others alerted by the monarch were the Area Commander, Area ‘A’ Lion Building and all Divisional Police Officers covering Lagos Island.
The monarch specifically asked the authorities “to ensure that people involved in the act are brought to book and assist government in ensuring free flow of traffic in the affected areas.”
The statement added that Akiolu also intended to send out his White Cap Chiefs and others to ensure that sanity was restored on Lagos roads.
“Henceforth, anyone caught in using my name to commit this criminal act will face the full wrath of the law,” Oba Akiolu was quoted in the statement.
