LASMA officers take selfies with Martins

Inter Milan legend Obafemi Martins was among the ex-internationals who graced the star-studded #PlayForPurpose charity match put together by Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong on June 22.

In a post on TikTok, the 40-year-old was mobbed by Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASMA) officers when he dropped from his Mercedes-AMG G63.

The LASMA officers hailed the former Newcastle star in the Yoruba language, calling him a glorious child and son of the soil.

One of the officers took a quick selfie with the 2006 AFCON bronze medallist, while others continued to hail him until they received a response. The LASMA officer said:

"Obagoal, ologo. Omo eko Pataki, number one."

One of the duties of a LASMA officer is to promote a state-wide culture of traffic regulation, control, and management, as well as to ensure smooth traffic flow on Lagos roads, per their official website.

According to Punch, 12 LASMA officers have been dismissed for misconduct between December 2023 to April 2025.
