Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode on Tuesday revealed a permanent ban on the State Vehicles Inspection Officers, VIOs from operating in all Lagos roads.

Akinwunmi also advised the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC to restrict their operations to highways and stay off streets in the Lagos metropolis.

Ambode spoke while commissioning the pedestrian bridge, lay-by and slip road at Ojodu-Berger bus stop on Tuesday.

The governor said it had been observed that VIOs and FRSC contributed significantly to traffic gridlock in the Lagos metropolis.

He said the state would employ technology to track and monitor vehicle registration and MOT certifications.

In his words: “Let me use this opportunity to reiterate that Vehicle Inspection Officers (VIOs) have been asked to stay off our roads permanently. We also advice the Federal Road Safety Corps to stay on the fringes and highways and not on the main streets of Lagos.

“It has become evident that these agencies contribute to the traffic challenges on our roads. We will employ technology to track and monitor vehicle registration and MOT certifications.”

VIOs?, very useless set of people, I just wonder what's their function anyway. nice one Ambode

confirmed. those VIO are special orangutans frm IBADAN zoo.

chai, i feel happy with this news due to some personal reasons but on the other hand i feel concerned for the inadequacies that might set in due to the absence of VIO on Lagos roads.

Good news.
