The Lagos and Ogun State Police Commands have begun a joint patrol on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway to prevent crime in the area.

This was disclosed by the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, on his X handle on Thursday.

Hundeyin stated that the joint patrols will cover Kara Bridge to Sagamu Interchange, urging motorists not to panic at the sight of increased police patrols on the travel route.

“As part of efforts to enhance security on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, 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 post read.

Hundeyin further advised citizens to be law abiding as they go about their daily activities.

“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.”
