Mr Olusegun Ogungbemide, FRSC Lagos Sector Commander, disclosed this in an interview with newsmen on Sunday in Lagos, NAN reports.

“In January 2021, the number of offenders stood at 4,686 with 5,258 offences.

“Also, in February 2021, the number of offenders were 4,399 while the number of offences was 5,197.
