Traffic gridlock to ease off within 48 hours- Truck owners

The National President of the Association of Maritime
Truck Owners, Remi Ogungbemi says the traffic gridlock
currently being experienced in Lagos will ease off within the
next 48 hours. Speaking with NAN, Odugbemi said

“Since the Lagos State Government relaxed the
restriction of trucks to start moving in the day,
accessing the ports had been difficult, due to trucks
trapped by the law.
Trucks in the port have to go out for incoming ones,
the Nigeria Customs Service have to clear the ones
in the ports, hence the backlogs that locked down
Lagos. I hope it will get better within 48 hours as
stakeholders are working tirelessly to ensure free
flow of traffic and we are sorry for the
inconveniences,” he said.
