Lagos Taskforce Recovers Dangerous Weapons, Hard Drugs, Demolishes Over 1700 Shanties In Fagba | AgegePulse Magazine

The Operatives of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences (Enforcement) Unit (Taskforce) over the weekend demolished over 1700 illegal shanties and containerised shops around Fagba Railway lines, Agege.

Speaking during the demolition exercise, the Chairman of the Agency CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi disclosed that owners/ occupants of these illegal shanties and containerised shops had been served a 7-day 'Removal Order' by the government based on series of complaints about criminal activities around Fagba, Agege.

He disclosed further that after the expiration of the Removal Order, the government gave them additional 21days grace to remove their belongings and vacate the entire area before embarking on the demolition exercise.

According to Egbeyemi "These illegal shanties and containerised shops were occupied by miscreants and hoodlums who terrorised innocent citizens around Fagba, Iju-Ishaga and Pen-Cinema area, dispossessing them of their valuables, especially early in the day and late at night.

He averred that investigations conducted had revealed that miscreants and hoodlums occupying these illegal shanties were responsible for the destructions of public properties and looting of shops immediately after the recent 'EndSARS' protest around Agege.

"It was an eyesore with miscreants and hoodlums freely smoking and selling Indian hemp including prostitution by under-age boys and girls around Fagba railway lines", he added.

The Chairman confirmed to AgegePulse that suspected illegal substances (Indian hemp) and other dangerous weapons,z drugs such as Codeine, Skunk and Tramadol  were recovered during the demolition exercise.

He, however, enjoined members of the public to support government in salvaging the State from the clutches of these notorious criminals by reporting any noticeable criminal activities around them to security Agencies.

The Operatives of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences (Enforcement) Unit (Taskforce) today recovered four suspected stolen goats with covered mouths inside a vehicle abandoned by the occupants for contravening Lagos traffic law at Ikorodu.

According to the Enforcement Team leader DSP Anthony Abutu who recovered the goats, the team was on a security monitoring operation in Ikorodu axis when they intercepted a Blue Toyota Camry (AAA 743 EZ) driving on the BRT corridor, adding that the driver and his colleague immediately abandoned the vehicle on the road and ran away.

He said the action of the two men raised suspicion among the team which led to a thorough search of the vehicle and four goats with covered mouths and food items were recovered from the booth of the car, indicating that the goats and other items in the car were stolen.

In this regard, the Agency has called on members of the public, particularly those residing around Ikorodu axis whose goats are missing or suspected stolen to report the Agency at Bolade, Oshodi for collection of the recovered loot.

The newly kits distributed include new sets of uniforms (Camouflage and black), berets, shoulder badges and crests.

LASEMA Recovers First Y2020 Road Crash at Ile Zik

...'Ember Months' is a Myth-DG LASEMA Dr. Oke-Osanyintolu

AgegePulse Magazine

While still celebrating the successful cross over into the new year, LASEMA Response Team from it's Cappa Base made the Agency's first recovery of the year at  Ile Zik Inward Dopemu, along Lagos – Abeokuta expressway yesterday.

Upon arrival at the scene of the incident for recovery operation in what turned out to be the first incident of Year2020, it was discovered by the Response Team that the containerized truck with unknown registration fell on it's side due to mechanical malfunction, constituting obstruction to vehicular activities along the express road.

However, no loss of lives were recorded, nor were injuries sustained during the successful recovery operation conducted using the Agency's heavy duty equipment - the Super Metro, to recover the containerized truck off the express road.

Commenting on the incident, the DG/CEO of LASEMA, Dr. Olufemi Oke-Osanyintolu said that scientifically, this most recent incident has further debunked the mythical assertions to the "ember" months to which a lot of people erroneously attribute road crashes and other disasters.

"Scientifically, this accident of the containerized truck with unknown registration that fell on it's side on first day of the Year2020, did not fall due to the date or months of this new year, rather, it fell due to the fact that the truck developed a mechanical malfunction.

"This incident goes to prove that if this, and other truck owners do the needful in terms of proper maintenance of their fleet, training and retraining of their drivers, as well as ensuring that appropriate precautions are taken, such incidents will surely be averted to it's barest minimum, if not completely eradicated.

" This is why LASEMA is moving on to it's next level of incident prevention this Year2020 with increased enlightenment and even it's catch-them-young School Advocacy programs in order to educate the upcoming generation and inculcate appropriate safety precautions in their lifestyles from their growing years, so that they will not depart from it when they are fully formed".

Going further, Dr. Oke-Osanyintolu asserted that it was important to enlighten the present population of active adults on safety measures, prevention of emergencies and by extension, disasters, continuing that several scientific researches has proven that it takes a minimum of ten years - one decade, to achieve attitudinal change.

" Due to the long time it takes to achieve attitudinal change, it's also imperative that we go beyond this present generation of adults to groom the upcoming generations on safety measures, emergency/disaster prevention, at home, schools, corporate offices, places of worship with large gatherings of people. Today's children are tomorrow's adults which makes it imperative that they must be included in LASEMA's emergency/disaster prevention programs because Emergency/Disaster Management is Everyone's Business".

Aside the LASEMA Rescue Team that performed the successful operation, other responders present at the incident scene  included LASTMA, FRSC and officers of the Nigerian Police Force who were controlling traffic, while the Police also provided security all through the recovery operation.
