Man Attacked And Break LASTMA Officier’s Head On Duty (photos) by damilola4162(m): 10:19am On Nov 10, 2020 |
A Lagos resident, Emmanuel Ben, is currently in detention after he was arrested by soldiers and policemen after he attacked and injured an official of the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA) who asked him not to cross the road but to use the pedestrian bridge, the agency announced on Monday, November 9. The Lagos State government has therefore ordered that the man should face prosecution after he attacked the staff of the agency, Mr Ismaila Lukman, at the Jakande Junction in Lekki while on his lawful duty around 2.20pm on Sunday. ccording to reports, the LASTMA official was on his beat at Jakande Junction controlling traffic manually owing to the destruction of the traffic light during the #EndSARS protest when Ben approached him asking that traffic be stopped for him to cross. The official refused his request, asking him to use the nearby pedestrian bridge. Ben was then said to have proceeded to step into the carriageway in front of moving traffic causing disruption to traffic flow. Lukman then asked him to leave the road and stop disturbing his work. This angered Ben who threrafter attacked Lukman, hitting him on his head with an object that seems to be a metal, causing flow of blood on Lukman’s head. According to a statement by LASTMA on Monday, Ben is to face the law for assaulting its officials following complaints lodged by the agency at the Lagos State Ministry of Justice. According to the statement on its Twitter handle @followlastma: “The Commissioner for Justice in Lagos State, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo, has directed that a man, named Emmanuel Ben, who assaulted a LASTMA Officer, Ismaila Lukman, at the Jakande Junction in Lekki while on his lawful duty around 2.20pm on Sunday 8th November, 2020 be made to face the full wrath of the law for the assault to serve as deterrent to others. “According to Lukman, he was on his beat at Jakande Junction controlling traffic manually owing to the destruction of the traffic signal light during the last protest when Ben approached him asking that traffic be stopped for him to cross even with the presence of pedestrian bridge nearby which the LASTMA officer said he should avail himself of. “He then proceeded to step into the carriageway in front of moving traffic causing disruption to traffic flow. “Lukman then asked him to leave the road and stop disturbing his work. An eyewitness said that Ben thereafter threatened that LASTMA officials would be chased off the road like the police and attacked Lukman hitting him on his head with a weapon that seems to be a metal, causing serious laceration resulting in flow of blood. “Ben was arrested with the help of the military patrol and police around the area and he’s currently at the Ilasan Police Station for prosecution at the earliest possible time.” Source: https://insidenaija.com.ng/man-attacked-and-break-lastma-officiers-head-on-duty-photos/
