The police in Ogun State have arrested and prosecuted no fewer than nine commercial motorcyclists for the alleged use of unauthorised helmets.

Consequently, Odutola stated that “police have started arresting individuals who wear tinted reflective helmets and pose as commercial motorcyclists to rob unsuspecting passengers.” This method, she alleged, allows the Okada riders “to conceal their identities and carry out their illegal activities.” DAILY POST learnt that the arrested suspects are currently being interrogated at the Ijebu Ode Police Station.
