Motorists have lamented the return of some policemen who specialise in extorting motorists around the traffic light in the Isheri-Berger area of Lagos State.

The policemen said to be attached to the Isheri Police Station were said to have been carrying out their activities in the last three months.Our correspondent noticed that the policemen targeted motorists seeking to connect from the Berger-Isheri Road to the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, using the old traffic light.

A motorist, Sunday Oroleke, who fell victim to their antics recently said the leader of the group collected N 25,000 from him before releasing him. “Meanwhile, I was going to Osogbo and was already running late. Eventually, we settled for N25,000 and he took me to a PoS operator at Jobi Fele Way where the amount was withdrawn from my account before I was allowed to go.”
