The Lagos state governor, Babatunde Fashola has vowed to enforce the new traffic law and the existing environmental laws of the state to ensure the state remains environmentally-friendly.
The governor, who disclosed this on Tuesday [Nov. 6] after visiting some on-going projects sites, however warned visitors and those interested in coming to live in Lagos to keep aBosom with the details of these laws so as not to break them.
Mr Fashola said the state government will not fold its arms while some residents live in Lagos as if they are living in their villages.
You can’t continue to live like you are in your village here in Lagos. Life in Lagos is changing by the day. The government has spent fortune to ensure good environment, drainages, roads and transportation system. It is unfortunate some people are still living as if they are in their village.
“Please, if you can’t obey our environmental and traffic laws, stay back in your village”, the governor warned.

It's the visitors that made Lagos what it is today so mind how you talk mr governor. The indigens of lagos are the so called alayes that mars Lagos as a mega city. Not that you are not trying but you still have to do more to stop the miscreants and touts. The touts even boast that the money they are extorting from us is going to Alausa. So if the claim is not right, it's time for you to clear your name by taking them off the streets of lagos. Lagos is the only mega city in the world where touts are the lords of the streets. The worst case scenario is that police cannot even arrest them and sometimes when they do, you will still see them back at the same spot the next morning. You complain that we evade tax, but what we pay to your tout brothers is 10 times more than our actual tax evaluation. Keep the alayes and touts off the streets and see how your tax income will increase.
