The Ogun State Command of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) vowed to enforce the intra-state lockdown order to prevent further spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

Mr. Clement Oladele, FRSC Sector Commander, stated that physical barricades are being erected in all the boundaries to prevent motorists from contravening the directive.

He said; “The FRSC has put in place physical barriers to make the inter-state lockdown order effective and to prevent people and motorists from defying the order.

“If there are no barriers to restrict the flow of traffic, those who are not covered by presidential waivers will find their way into the state,” he said.

Oladele said that there was a tendency for people from Lagos State to move into the state, as they believed that the directive had also been relaxed in Ogun.

Ogun state still had a week left to go on the lockdown, as it started a week after Lagos and Abuja had commenced theirs.
