Some Nigerian soldiers on Monday, August 14, 2023 attacked some officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA).
The sad incident happened at the Ojota area of Lagos state.
The soldiers were seen attacking the LASTMA officials with weapons while cursing and abusing them.
Recall that some days ago, a LASTMA official was captured assaulting a soldier inside a commercial vehicle popularly called ‘Danfo’ in the Ketu area of the state.
A viral video on social media captured the official harshly speaking to the soldier who was sitting in a commercial bus over an unknown issue. The enraged soldier also replied angrily with insults.
The situation got intense, as the officer stepped down the vehicle to launch an attack at the LASTMA official.
The soldiers who were seen today attacking the LASTMA officials came to retaliate on behalf of the soldier.
