Lagos State Governor,Babatunde Fashola on Tuesday [July 17] arrested two top Military officers for driving on the dedicated Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) lane.
The two Military officers, who were accosted on the BRT lane at the Outer Marina in Central Lagos, are Colonel K. I Yusufwho drove in an Army Green Peugeot 406 with registration Number BO1 – 150 NA and Staff Sergeant Adeomi A.J. who drove in a black Toyota Camry.
Fashola who was visibly raged over the incident, left his convoy, heading straight towards the two officers,expressing dismay that those who should show the highest form of discipline and professionalism were the ones violating the BRT regulation.
Realizing that the game was up, Colonel Yusuf came down from his car, saluted severally and kept muttering “I am sorry, very, very sorry” with the Governor enquiring why, as a senior military officer, Yusuf would choose to break the law instead of preserving it.
The arrest drew the attention of commuters and other passers-by who commended the Governor for showing good leadership and expressed joy that the senior military officer got caught in the act at last.
