The Lagos State Government is set to arraign one Fred Onwuche, a commercial driver, next week, for allegedly assaulting Razak Kosoko, a LASTMA official who was on assigned duty in Lekki.

"Such attacks will be met with stiffer punishments under the law. The State Government is poised to uphold the rule of law by ensuring that the fundamental right of every resident is protected", he added.
Recall that last month, a similar incident of assault on a LASTMA official was recorded and the alleged perpetrator, one Ben Emmanuel, was arraigned by the Ministry of Justice before Yaba Chief Magistrate Court on a two Count Charge of grievous bodily harm under Section 245 and Resisting a Public Officer while engaged in the discharge of his lawful duties under Section 117 (1).
