 LAGOS TASKFORCE ARRESTS HIT-AND-RUN DRIVER, RESCUES VICTIM


The Lagos State Taskforce has apprehended a hit-and-run driver, identified as Dauda Bello, a resident of Adebayo Street, Oshodi, for reckless driving. The incident, which occurred yesterday afternoon, left the victim, Oluwole Bukola, a resident of Ibafo, Ogun State, severely injured.


Preliminary investigations revealed that the accident was caused by overspeeding and reckless driving on the part of the driver. Swift intervention by officers of the Lagos State Taskforce ensured that the victim received immediate medical attention, while the driver was promptly arrested.
