The chairman of the Agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye, described the action of some transport operators as self-centred due to the way they deliberately occupy a large portion of the road to load goods onto their vehicles and pick up passengers.

He noted that residents and commuters who ply that axis, especially after the close of work, complain bitterly to the State Government concerning the activities of bus operators who converted those areas to roadside courier stations and mini garages.
