The Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Corps (LNSC) has arrested one Friday Nwafor for vandalising and stealing road light indicators on the Third Mainland Bridge.
In a post on his X page, Jubril Gawat, senior special assistant on new media to Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos governor, said the 46-year-old vandal was arrested on Tuesday.
Gawat said Nwafor was handed over to the police after he was caught with the road studs removed from the newly renovated bridge.
“Officers of the Lagos State Neigbourhood Safety Corps (LNSC) apprehended a road infrastructure vandal who was vandalizing the newly constructed 3rd Mainland Bridge road light indicators,” he wrote.

“The suspect was identified as Mr. Friday Nwafor, a 46-year-old male resident of Lagos, who was immediately taken into our custody and handed over to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos Command, Mr. Adegoke Fayoade.”
Last month, the Lagos police command arrested four suspects for vandalising and stealing armoured cables.
In a post on his X handle, Benjamin Hundeyin, the police spokesperson in Lagos, said the suspects were arrested along Oba Akran road.

Hundeyin said the vandalised armoured cables were installed by the state government for the smart city light-up Lagos project.
