 LASG COMMENCES ENFORCEMENT OF E-CALL UP SYSTEM ALONG LEKKI-EPE CORRIDOR


… Urges Truckers To Comply


The Lagos State Government has commenced full enforcement of the E-Call Up System, introduced to streamline and regulate truck activities along the Lekki-Epe axis of the State.


The technology-driven e-call-up system has been in the pipeline for over two years in anticipation of large vehicular traffic that will be generated by trucks assessing the Lekki Deep Seaport, Lekki Free Zone, Dangote Refinery and other industries within the axis.


With enforcement now in full effect, the State Government urges Truckers to comply with the system as several engagement meetings were held to educate stakeholders on the benefits of the e-call up and adequate time is given for all stakeholders to come on board. Similarly, the enforcement date was adjourned severally to encourage total integration and willful compliance.


Having been given adequate room for full compliance, enforcement commenced on 24th January 2025 with 10 trucks apprehended but were later released as an act of goodwill by the state government with assurance from the stakeholders to adjust by coming onboard the e-call-up system.


However, on Friday, 21st February 2025, 11 trucks were apprehended again for non-compliance, which led to the attack on the enforcement officers and the arrest of some suspects connected with the attack; the suspects and trucks have all been released as further indication of government’s support for willful compliance. The state government warns that these acts of clemency should not be seen as a weakness on the part of the government.


Stakeholders on the axis are cautioned that a total enforcement process will commence from the 1st of March 2025. All violators will be apprehended and made to face the full wrath of the law.


The Lagos State Government remains committed to providing a conducive environment for the success of all stakeholders situated and operating along the Lekki-Epe axis, and, by extension, the state as a whole.
