"During the operation, several commercial motorcycle operators were apprehended while illegally plying highways and restricted routes with reckless disregard for public safety.

"Some were found using motorcycles to transport illicit substances and hazardous items such as petroleum products and gas, while others were seen conveying schoolchildren and toddlers in unsafe conditions on major roads."

The Task Force spokesperson revealed that: "At the conclusion of the weeklong operation, a total of 278 commercial motorcycles were impounded, restoring sanity and improving compliance across the affected areas."

The Chairman of the Lagos State Taskforce, CSP Adetayo Akerele, reaffirmed the agency's commitment to sustaining enforcement operations until full compliance is achieved.

Akerele said: "We will not be cowed or fold our arms and allow people of criminal intent to overrun Lagos or surrender to their illegalities."
