The Lagos state police has on Saturday arrested two street light cable vandals who pretend to be technicians while carrying out their illegal act.
Reportedly, the suspects who were linked to the outage of power within a short time of lighting up roads only operate during the night.
A statement released by Lagos State Electricity Board on its official Twitter yesterday reads;
One of the numerous challenges we face with sustaining the provision of street lights in some areas in Lagos is the vandilization of cables and equipments. We often realize there’s outage of power within a short space of time of lighting up roads
These cable vandals operate mostly at midnight and sometimes pretend to be technicians. We urge Lagosians to be conscious and vigilant. It is a collective responsibility to ensure sustainability of government property
