“I want first to salute the citizen that got the video of the LASTMA officer who was caught negotiating bribe inside a citizen’s car.

“We must all use that kind of medium to fish out all the bad eggs in the society and bring them to justice.

“That LASTMA officer is still on the run and we have declared him wanted. I can assure you today that we will get him. As soon as we do, we will give him all his rights and he will have his day in court,” Gov. Fashola said.

Gov. Fasola further warned against skating on the state highways, saying, “anyone caught skating on the highways will be arrested and prosecuted.”

“We aren’t discouraging our children from doing so. But they should do that in designated places like recreation centres, stadia and others,” Gov. Fashola commented on this ban.
