The Lagos State Government ordered law enforcement agents to detain drivers with damaged license plates and those without any number fitted to their vehicles yesterday.
The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Transportation, Mr. Abdulhafiz Toriola, remarked that improper use of license plates has become widespread during a conversation with journalists.

Toriola claimed that a car without a license plate might be used to perpetrate crimes that might never be found, citing Section 16 of the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law of 2018.
“Using number plates is for proper identification and security as they are customized for each vehicle,” he stated.
“The law enforcement agencies have been mandated to apprehend defaulters. I urge vehicle owners to comply with the State Government to strengthen the security architecture already put in place.”
