The Moment Sanwoolu Arrested Okada Man Suspected To Be A Military Man In Lagos

A viral video shows Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, ordering the arrest of a man riding a motorcycle against traffic along Ozumba Mbadiwe road, Victoria Island, has surfaced on social media.

We gathered that Sanwo-Olu, while on his way to an event, coincidentally came across the motorcyclist riding through one-way traffic along Ozumba Mbadiwe road and he ordered the security personnel in his convoy to arrest the rider.

The state had also warned private motorcycle owners against flouting traffic rules.

A witness revealed that while the security operatives attached to the governor were trying to effect the arrest of the rider, he resisted and tried to gain access to a military facility along Ozumba Mbadiwe road.

During the scuffle between the security personnel and the rider, some military officers who came to the scene, insisted that the motorcyclist was a colleague.

Sanwo-Olu was said to have insisted that the rider should be arrested for breaching the state traffic law — a development that led to heated argument at the scene.

In the video that surfaced on the social media, the unidentified military officer was seen carried by security operatives into a van.
