A Nigerian man who goes by the Twitter handle @Dagbofather was captured on camera yelling at three Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) employees for breaking the law near the Third Mainland Bridge area of the state.
According to the man, he was climbing a bridge to link to the Third Mainland Bridge when he came across the LASTMA vehicle driving against the traffic.
The man blocked the LASTMA vehicle and told them to turn back but the officials refused and he parked his car in front of them causing a blockade.
This occurs shortly after the Lagos Government sold off some vehicles that had been abandoned or confiscated while enforcing the state’s traffic laws.
He tweeted, “Citizen arrest + invective = good job; Police arrest + invective = harassment, unprofessionalism. Double standards, I guess. While we commence investigation into this, please call out @followlastma.”
“I have contacted LASTMA authorities and the head of the police unit with LASTMA. I can confirm that an internal investigation has begun. This will not be swept under the carpet. We appreciate citizen reportage.
“I just got confirmation that the entire team has been identified and summoned to @followlastma headquarters,” Hundeyin added.
