Police recover arms and ammunition from okada riders in lagos.

The police disclosed, on Thursday, in Lagos, that a sizeable number of assorted guns had been recovered from motorcyclists, otherwise known as okada riders, operating in the state. Disclosing this at the end of the State Security Council meeting, the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Operations, Mr Tunde Sobulo, said investigation had revealed that the okadas being used in snatching and blocking vehicles before they were snatched were not registered, stressing that the command was now going fully after unregistered okadas.

He said: "In fact, we have recovered some arms from some of these okadas. In the same vein, some of these illegal aliens don't register their okadas. Immediately we impound the okadas, we hand over the illegal aliens to Immigration Service for deportation. So far, so good, we are really trying.

"Initially we were not searching the okadas in their presence we were just impounding the okadas, but now we are searching the okadas in their presence. So, if we want to impound your okada, we will search it and if nothing is found, we will allow you to go."
