Frsc officers in ogun state tear-gassed 6months ,6 and. 8 years old kids to impound daddy's car

Officials of the Federal Road Safety
Commission, FRSC, Ogun State sector
unleashed terror on three school children in
Abeokuta, yesterday, by tear-gassing them
while attempting to impound their father’s
new vehicle.
An eye-witness told Vanguard that the
incident occurred when the children -
Ibrahim Folorunsho (8), Basirat Folorunsho
(6) and Faridat Folorunsho (6 months) were
being conveyed to school by their father in
company of their mother.
The source, who pleaded anonymity, said the
officials of FRSC flagged down the Mitsubishi
space wagon car in Omida area of the town to
impound the car.
It was gathered that the alleged offence of
the father of the kids was that he was driving
an unregistered car which prompted the
officials of FRSC to attempt to seize it.
One of the corps allegedly tear-gassed the
occupants of the car before the vehicle was
driven to the sector headquarters at
Government Reservation Area, GRA, Ibara,
Abeokuta.
The tear-gas caused serious discomfort to the
kids who were heading to Lawson Private
School in Kuto area of the town.
The kids were seen profusely shedding tears as
a result of the teargas, a development which
attracted many passers-by expressing
displeasure over the action.
The people in the area offered first aid
treatment to the children, before they
regained stability, while six months old had
to be rushed to hospital by the mother for
adequate medical attention.
When our correspondent visited the
headquarters of the commission, no officer
was ready to talk to the press.
