MC Oluomo forms taskforce to flush out agberos from Lagos bus-stops, parks

Chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garages Management Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya (aka MC Oluomo) immediately set up a Taskforce team comprising 10 branch chairmen, nine members of the JDWAN and other nominees from the Chairman of Committee of Lagos State Parks Administration, Oba Sulaiman Adeshina-Ashade, the Oniba of Iba, to rid the bus stops of those boys.

Akinsanya said the Taskforce has a month ultimatum to clear the mess.

He promised to liaise with the state Commissioner for Transportation and Special Adviser on Transportation to nip the illegal activities of the LASTMA and Taskforce in the bud.

According to him, the highest fine for any erring commercial bus operator is N20,000, describing the N150,000 fine as unacceptable.

“All what you complained about are true and we’ll start addressing them now. We want to see changes within a month. Once the Taskforce we set up here conclude their assignment on Lagos-Badagry Expressway, they will move to Ikorodu Road. My administration will not allow any bus driver to suffer. They work hard and should enjoy their wealth derived from their sweat,” he said.

Akinsanya urged the branch chairmen to live up to expectation by looking after the welfare of their members.
