It said checkpoints that caused traffic bedlam which trapped essential duty workers including journalists have been relocated to spacious points closest to U-turns.

To give thoroughfare to essential duty workers in Lagos during the dusk- to- dawn curfew, the Lagos State Police Command said it has relocated some checkpoints.
