Henceforth, traffic offenders are to be tried by special courts in Lagos, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu said at the weekend.

According to him, the special courts would be created soon, adding that convicts will be made to serve punishment if found guilty at the point of contravention.

The government would not spare anyone, irrespective of status, warning that motorists must obey traffic regulations.

According to a statement by deputy chief press secretary Gboyega Akosile, the governor spoke on Sunday at an interdenominational thanksgiving Service organised by the Lagos chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) at the Deeper Life Bible Church Headquarters in Gbagada.

The statement quoted the governor as saying: “We want the people to obey Lagos traffic law. We want them to understand that they are not the only road users who have right of way. If you want my government to finish well, don’t drive against the traffic.
“We are working with the Acting Chief Judge of the state to set up special mobile courts that will dispense judgment on traffic offences. Any offender would be made to serve the punishment immediately, which could be in the form of compulsory community service. We are declaring zero tolerance for disobedience to traffic rules.”

Sanwo-Olu said the task of realising the ‘Greater Lagos’ project would be difficult without the support of the residents.

He urged Christians in the state to join hands with his administration in its efforts to create a prosperous Lagos.

CAN Chairman, Apostle Alexander Bamgbola, described life as “a race”, pointing out that the governor emergence was a call to service.
He urged the governor to always seek the pleasure of God before taking decisions.

Observing that many leaders failed because they sought the pleasure of man and severed their connections with God, Apostle Bamgbola said a leader must be just in deciding the affairs of the society

Sanwo-Olu should take it easy. If you give too much powers to these hungry LASTMA officers, they will surely abuse it

These guys are more interested in punishing offenders than solving the problem of heavy traffic leading to stress which in turn leads to reduction of lifespan

There should be a special court with fast judgment delivery for rape cases, violence and theft.

The special courts should be ready to prosecute as many traffic offenders every hour.
Though, it's a good decision because we need to obey traffic rules at all times.

I don't think so, this is should be like election tribunal and other similar court, judges at high court level will handle the case and appeal goes straight to CofA.
I think it's in the class of special offences court that handles rape issues and domestic violence set up by Ambode.
That mobile court, na one person go just sit and declare you guilty

interesting
