Akerele said that the motorcycles were impounded in Sabo Ikorodu, Berger, and Ikotun while enforcing the ban on the operations of commercial motorcycles in restricted areas of the state.
Akerele reiterated the task force’s unwavering stance on illegal commercial motorcycle operations, stressing that riders and passengers caught violating the ban would be prosecuted.
“Passengers on okada are as guilty as the riders. If caught, they will face the full weight of the law alongside the riders.
“The Lagos State Taskforce remains committed to enforcing the law and ensuring that Lagos roads remain safe and motorable.
“Residents are encouraged to adhere to the regulations, as these efforts are in place to protect the lives and property of all residents of the state,” he said.
According to him, all the 128 impounded motorcycles from all the locations will be forfeited to the State Government through the court.
