    The Lagos State Government has ordered a thorough inspection of all vehicles operated by licensed e-hailing companies in the state, citing safety concerns and inadequate service delivery.

    In a statement on Sunday titled “LASG to Roll Out Inspection Schedule for E-Hailing Operators”, the state Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, said the move is aimed at improving safety, service quality, and regulatory compliance across the sector.

    He further stated that the ministry had observed “the deplorable condition of some vehicles operated by drivers under licensed e-hailing platforms within the state, necessitating a comprehensive audit of all vehicles in use,” warning that “any vehicle found unsuitable will not be allowed to operate on Lagos roads.”

    Osiyemi also expressed worries about some operators’ weak databases, stating that this hampered the tracing of crimes committed using their services.

    The ministry’s Permanent Secretary, Olawale Musa, stated that unregistered automobiles “will no longer be tolerated,” emphasising that such actions “pose significant security risks.”

    He also stated that all drivers must be accredited by the Lagos State Drivers’ Institute and encouraged residents to shun offline bookings to ensure safety and accountability.

    Representatives from Uber, Bolt, Lagride, Laurie, Vas Acquico, InDrive, Folti Tech, and EDryv attended a meeting at the Ministry of Transportation in Alausa, Ikeja, where they presented updates on safety modifications like panic buttons and increased driver verification.
