FRSC Collaborates With Security Agencies To Combat Crime Along Lagos-Ibadan Road

 The Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, Lagos State Sector Command, has disclosed that it is working with the police and the military to tackle the menace of robbers on the Long Bridge, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

The long Bridge and Berger Bus Stop on the expressway have become a safe place for robbers taking advantage of the gridlock on the road.

The section is currently undergoing reconstruction by the Federal Government, hence the partial closure which causes gridlock on the ever-busy highway.

The FRSC Sector Commander, Hyginus Omeje  stated that  the corps was aware of robbery attacks against motorists on the Long Bridge and had risen to the occasion.

Omeje who explained the challenge of the commission which does not carry arms, it is working with security agents to dislodge miscreants along that road.

He said, “Whatever we need to do to reduce gridlock across the state, we have to do it. It is because of this gridlock that miscreants attack people in traffic.

“Some of these armed miscreants dispossess people of their jewellery, phones and other valuables.

“We are aware of that and we are working with relevant sister agencies, the Nigeria Police Force and even the military, so that they can continue to provide security there since the FRSC does not carry arms.’’
