” It is regular practice for me to go round the city of Lagos and monitor those who are helping me to control traffic. I give gifts always to people who are exceptional in their duties. For instance, the LASTMA official is know by people who pass through Alausa, he is always stationed at Radio junction. He is referred to as dancing LATSMA official. People are talking about him, because you will always see him dancing and smiling while controlling traffic. He is not a policeman,but he is doing wonderfully well in his duty of traffic control . He is making my job easier.
” I still have some traffic officers that I will still reward for their hard work. It is a continuous exercise. I will not stop. I am proud of anyone who makes my work easier. I am happy that some of my best officers are being nominated for Awards. On December 7, two of my officers will be receiving Awards at a special event, put together by the Crime Reporters Association of Nigeria ( CRAN). I will also be rewarded.
