Soldiers curse out Sanwo-Olu, defend colleague who rode against traffic

Pulse reported how the Governor reenacted a scene that endeared one of his predecessors, Babatunde Raji Fashola, to many Lagosians when he ordered the arrest of the erring soldier alongside three other motorcyclists on Tuesday, January 2, 2024.

The incident happened during Sanwo-Olu’s trip to the Lagos State University (LASU) campus in Ojo, where he commissioned the Femi Gbajabiamila Conference Centre.

In a viral video, the Governor was seen ordering his security detail, believed to be DSS officials, to arrest one of the errant motorcyclists who claimed to be a soldier, vowing that he was going to lock him up.
