One Dead As Lagos Okada Riders, Police Officers Clash

The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the death of one person on Santos Avenue in the Abule Egba area of the state when policemen enforcing a ban on motorcycles in the state clashed with riders.

The Command, in a post on its official X handle, said the police operatives were attacked by the motorcyclists, popularly known as Okada riders, in a bid to stop them from enforcing the ban.

According to the post, the officers justifiably used teargas to disperse the crowd. At the same time, a tricycle passenger panicked and jumped out of the tricycle, and an approaching Leyland tipper being driven recklessly ran over her.

The vehicle was later recovered, and the family of the deceased was contacted for a full investigation into the incident.
