The Nigerian Army, has described clashes between soldiers and officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA) as disturbing.
In a statement by the spokesman for the Army, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, such development is becoming rampant and would be thoroughly investigated.
He added that the authorities of the Nigerian Army are genuinely concerned and are embarking on vigorous sensitisation campaign to educate their personnel on the need to ensure compliance with traffic rules and promote synergy and interagency cooperation in Lagos State and around the country.
LASTMA spokesman, Taofeek Adebayo who confirmed the incident, said the agency would respond appropriately to the incident.
Recall a viral on Monday displayed some soldiers attacking a LASTMA official after the traffic officer allegedly dragged an officer out of the front seat of a commercial bus.
