The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has secured the conviction and sentencing of a traffic offender to two (2) months’ imprisonment without the option of fine following a special patrol intervention patrol along the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway.
In a statement signed by the Corps Public Education Officer, Segun Ogungbemide, the conviction, which was handed down by the Ojodu-Abiodun Magistrate District Court, stemmed from a coordinated enforcement operation launched on 10th February, 2026, to address the persistent and dangerous practice of motorists driving against the flow of traffic along the Kara–Opic axis of the expressway.
The illegal act had escalated due to ongoing bridge expansion joint construction works on both the inward and outward sections of the corridor.
The FRSC Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed says the corps will continue to maintain zero tolerance for traffic violations that endanger lives. He assured the motoring public that sustained enforcement operations will continue along critical corridors nationwide.
