  MACRON URGES EU FIRMS TO HALT US INVESTMENTS OVER TARIFFS French President Emmanuel Macron has called on European companies to suspend planned investments in the United States following President Donald Trump’s announcement of sweeping global tariffs on American imports. Speaking with French industry leaders on Thursday, Macron described the tariffs as “brutal and unfounded”, warning that Europe must respond strategically, sector by sector. He hinted at retaliatory measures, including the anti-coercion mechanism and potential actions targeting digital services and US financial systems, stating that Europe’s response would be stronger than its previous reaction to US steel and aluminum tariffs.

LAGOS TASKFORCE INTENSIFIES ANTI-OKADA OPERATION ACROSS THE STATE


…confiscates 64 bikes in Ikorodu, Berger, other areas


The Lagos State Taskforce, led by the Agency’s Chairman, CSP Adetayo Akerele, carried out a major anti-okada operation today at Aunty Kenny Bus Stop in Ikorodu and Berger Bus Stop. The operation, which targeted areas restricted by the Lagos State Government, resulted in the confiscation of 64 motorcycles which had been operating on the restricted routes thereby flouting the ban on their activities on all Highways in the Metropolis.


This enforcement exercise is part of the ongoing effort by the Agency to maintain order and ensure compliance with the State Government’s ban on okada operations in designated areas. Speaking after the operation, CSP Akerele reiterated the Government's stance, warning okada operators to desist from flouting the law. He urged them to seek alternative means of livelihoods, as continuing to operate illegally could lead to severe penalties, including jail terms for both the rider and passengers.


The Lagos State Taskforce remains committed to ensuring the safety and security of Lagos residents by enforcing environmental and traffic laws that support public safety.


The Chairman assured residents that the Agency under his watch would ensure that the activities of okada operators in all restricted areas become a thing of the past. He urged commuters to embrace safer and secure means of transportation which are in line with the THEMES PLUS Agenda of the State Government.
