LAGOS JANUARY 20TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Obianuju Catherine Udeh aks DJ Switch, has berated the Lagos State Government concerning the order it secured from a mobile court to auction 88 cars seized from traffic offenders in the state.
THEWILL recalls that the Lagos State Task Force on Environmental Sanitation and Special Offences (Enforcement Unit) had stated that it obtained an order at the Lagos State Mobile Court to auction 88 forfeited vehicles.
The vehicles were seized after they drove against traffic in different parts of the state.
According to Shola Jejeloye, the chairman of the agency, the owners of the vehicles were arraigned before the mobile court and the forfeiture of their vehicles was ordered.
According to Jejeloye, the public auction is scheduled to be held on Wednesday, January 20, 2021.
Reacting, to this development, DJ Switch in a video via her Instagram account on Tuesday, berated the state government for taking such an action since it could have fined the offenders or sent them to jail.
The DJ also accused the Lagos state government of being criminals and she wondered why other celebrities are not speaking out against the decision.
She said: ”I just read on the news that the Lagos State Environmental Unit through their inept and corrupt mobile court gave the order for peoples cars to be auctioned off, to be sold off.
“What happened to fines? Why can’t you fine these people? Give them something to pay or better still a minimum jail term. A weekend in jail or community service.
“All of a sudden you want to sell off the vehicles. You are a thief. Lagos state government is a thief.
“You are short of just carrying guns. It is gun that is remaining for you. You are a thief. ‘
”I am very certain that a lot of these people that their cars are there are crying out but nobody knows them. Where are our celebrities?
“The government didn’t even come up with creative ways to distract us and we are distracted. We have still not seen anyone dragged to jail over Lekki massacre.
“SARS is still running up and down the streets of this country, and nobody is doing anything about it. I can go on with a list of so many things going wrong.”
