Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos governor, has rolled out the plan
for law enforcement officers in the state to use body cameras.
The governor announced the plan to train the law enforcement
officers on Tuesday.
He said they will be trained by the Lagos state Law
Enforcement Training Institute (LETI).
Olajide Oduyoye, general manager of the Lagos State Traffic
Management Authority (LASTMA), had in February said the officers will use
cameras to capture traffic violations.
“This year, we are
going to be having body cameras on officers to capture incidences because
things happen so fast,” he had said.
“You can’t really say let me get my camera. But if you have
your body camera on that is recording, then you can capture all sorts of
different things that you can use against offenders.
“Those who willfully disobey traffic signs go in the middle
of the night to remove those signs. When they are caught, they will say that
there were no signs. They go and remove the signs to prove they aren’t aware of
the signs. This happens all the time.”
