There was pandemonium on Thursday as policemen and motorcycle riders clashed in Iyana Iba, Alaba, Agric, Barracks ends the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, Lagos State.

It was gathered that the clash started after men of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Enforcement Unit (Task Force) and the Rapid Response Squad visited the areas to enforce the state traffic law.

The operatives were said to have seized motorcycles along the expressway and also issued a notice to occupants at the Alaba Rago Market to vacate the premises.

The Lagos State Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, said over 200 motorcycles were impounded by the police during the raid.

He said, “There was no clash, no casualty, nobody injured. Police impounded over 200 motorcycles and as expected some of the motorcycle riders were unruly and confrontational but nothing degenerated into a clash.

“The motorcyclists were just resisting the impoundment of their motorcycles. Before the current ban, there has been an existing ban”.
