The presence of a Lagos state task force unit around the Ojota area of Lagos on Monday morning resulted in a spectacular scene as residents complied with the rule against crossing the highway.
Residents at the scene shared pictures of themselves and many others huddled up to use the Pedestrian Bridge to avoid being caught and fined by the task force unit commonly referred to as KAI – the Kick Against Indiscipline brigade, saddled with the responsibility of ensuring compliance with certain laws in Lagos.
