A combined patrol operation by the state police commands of Lagos and Ogun is set to curb the increasing level of unrest along the Lagos-Ibadan highway.
The two police commands will patrol together between the Sagamu Interchange and the Berger bus terminus in Lagos State.
The Lagos unit posted on Facebook confirming the new collaboration.
The members of the Rapid Response Squad will stand in for the Lagos State police command.
As part of efforts to enhance security on the Lagos-Ibadan Motorway, Lagos State Police Command and its Ogun State counterpart have commenced joint patrols of Kara Bridge to Sagamu Interchange.
The patrol teams from the Lagos State Command will comprise mainly the Rapid Response Squad (RRS).
The Lagos State security unit added that “motorists are, therefore, enjoined not to panic at the sight of increased police patrols, particularly the RRS, as it is a proactive measure to prevent crime and criminality on this stretch of road.”
