EASTER: TRACE PLEDGE TO ENSURE EFFECTIVE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND 24HRS EMERGENCY/RESCUE SERVICE.

Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency, TRACE, has pledge to ensure effective traffic management and prompt emergency/rescue service on Ogun 27 major traffic corridors before, during and after the Easter Celebration.

According to a release from the office of the most senior TRACE Commander, who oversees the agency's administration and operations schedule, Cmrd. Elias Omonayajo, the exercise which commenced on Wednesday, 1st April, 2026, will end on Friday, 10th April, 2026.

The statement further stated that the agency envisage a high volume of human and vehicular movement, breakdown of ill maintained vehicles, obstruction, overloading, excessive speed, drunk driving and road crashes.

Consequently, the agency is prepared to meet the challenges the Easter Celebration will likely pose towards effective traffic management by deploying additional operatives, co-opting the voluntary arm of TRACE, the TRACE Mayor, to man strategic beats and choke points across the Ogun 27 major traffic corridors, to check the excesses of recalcitrant road users and collaborate with other security and safety services (particularly the Ogun State Emergency Medical Services and Ambulance System, OGSEMSAS), under the auspices of the Ogun State Security Architecture, to guarantee orderliness and safety of lives and property in the state.

The release also directs Field Commanders to ensure that TRACE operatives are presentable, civil, professional, fair and firm, where and when the need arise in the discharge of their duties for the safety of the general public, particularly the motoring public.

While wishing the Christendom happy celebration, the TRACE boss enjoined all motorists to ensure strict compliance to traffic rules and regulations, because any vehicle apprehended for traffic infraction(s) during the celebration would not be released until Monday, 13th April, 2026, when TRACE would have ended her Special Easter Operation Order.

TRACE MEDIA & STRATEGY UNIT .

The Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency (TRACE) and the Ogun State Emergency Medical Services and Ambulance System (OGSEMSAS) have reaffirmed their commitment to closer collaboration aimed at enhancing service delivery and improving emergency response to road crash victims.

This development formed the focus of a courtesy visit by the OGSEMSAS management team, led by its Director, Dr. Hassan Adelakun, to TRACE headquarters on Ajebo Road, Abeokuta.

Speaking during the visit, the most senior TRACE Commander, Mr. Elias Omonayajo, who oversees the agency’s daily administration and operations, called for increased capacity building for TRACE personnel, particularly in first aid and emergency response. Omonayajo noted that equipping operatives with modern techniques for handling accident victims would significantly improve outcomes in saving lives and property, while ensuring quality emergency care.

He also reaffirmed TRACE’s readiness to support OGSEMSAS, especially in the training and retraining of its drivers for recertification, as part of efforts to boost operational efficiency. Earlier, Dr. Adelakun said the visit was aimed at strengthening and revitalising the working relationship between both agencies to achieve more effective service delivery across the state.

He urged TRACE field commanders to take full advantage of the renewed partnership by promptly notifying OGSEMSAS of emergency situations through its dedicated contact line, 08112000033, to ensure swift medical response.

TRACE Deploys Full Resources Across Ogun Highways For Eid-el-Fitr Traffic Control.

The Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency (TRACE) has deployed its full operational capacity across 27 major traffic corridors in the state as part of measures to ensure smooth traffic flow during the Eid-el-Fitr celebrations.

The agency said the special operation, which commenced on March 16, 2026, will run until March 27, 2026, covering key highways and critical traffic points across the state.

According to a statement issued by the senior TRACE Commander, Elias Omonayajo Adedayo, the initiative is designed to guarantee effective traffic management on a 24-hour basis throughout the festive period.

He noted that TRACE operatives would also be deployed to all Eid praying grounds across the 20 local government areas of the state to manage traffic and parking, ensuring orderliness at entry and exit points.

Adedayo explained that the operation would focus on increased patrol visibility, strategic positioning of rescue and emergency response teams, and intensified public awareness campaigns before, during, and after the celebrations.

He added that the agency would closely monitor motorists and other road users, including both commercial and private vehicles, in anticipation of increased human and vehicular movement during the period.

Major routes under surveillance include the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Sagamu-Ijebu-Ode-Benin/Ore Expressway, Sango/Ota-Idiroko corridor, Atan-Agbara-Badagry route, Abeokuta-Siun Interchange, and other critical highways across the state.

Motorists have been advised to exercise caution, particularly on roads undergoing construction or rehabilitation, while TRACE officials will be stationed at such locations to regulate traffic and maintain order.

The agency also disclosed plans to collaborate with other security and safety organisations, as well as community-based traffic management groups, to enhance overall road safety.

Field commanders were directed to ensure that operatives maintain professionalism, civility, and fairness while carrying out their duties.

While extending greetings to Muslim faithful and road users, Adedayo urged motorists to avoid speeding, drunk driving, and unnecessary night travel, and to adhere strictly to traffic regulations.

He warned that vehicles impounded for traffic violations during the period would not be released until March 30, 2026, after the conclusion of the special operation.

For emergencies and rescue situations, TRACE advised the public to contact its toll-free line 112 or other designated helplines. The agency also said its social media platforms would provide real-time traffic updates, alerts, and advisories throughout the festive period.
