The Oyo State Rule of Law Enforcement Authority (OYRLEA), in collaboration with the Oyo State Road Traffic Management Authority (OYRTMA) and security operatives, have impounded five truck for traffic disruption and road blockage.
OYRLEA's Chairperson, Honourable Justice Aderonke Adekemi Aderemi (Rtd.), in a statement, said the vehicles were impounded in clearance enforcement operation around Olubadan Estate, New Ife Road, Ibadan, Oyo State capital.
Justice Aderemi said the operation followed complaints of indiscriminate parking of trucks and trailers along the road, which obstructed the free-flow of traffic and caused considerable inconvenience to motorists and other road users.
She explained that during the exercise, the joint enforcement team impounded five (5) trucks while batteries of ten (10) other trucks found in violation were also disabled as part of enforcement measures.
Aderemi noted that the action was aimed at restoring order and ensuring that roads and other public spaces remain accessible to all road users.
OYRLEA further warned truck drivers and owners across Oyo State against indiscriminate parking on roads, road shoulders and other areas that obstruct traffic or endanger road users.
The statement stressed that the enforcement should serve as a clear warning to those whose activities constitute obstruction or create traffic-related challenges for members of the public.
OYRLEA therefore urged all truck drivers and owners to comply with traffic regulations and desist from indiscriminate parking.
It added that anyone found violating the law would face appropriate enforcement action.
The chairperson said the operation underscores the commitment of OYRLEA, OYRTMA and other relevant agencies to maintaining law and order, promoting safe road usage and protecting the rights of all road users across Oyo State.
