The attention of the Lagos State Parking Authority (LASPA) has been drawn to a video circulating online showing a man identified as “Isaiah,” who is seen wearing a jacket branded with the Lagos State Government and LASPA logos. In the video, the individual is also shown holding a permit that appears to be related to setback parking. LASPA wishes to clarify the following:
The individual in the video is not an authorized agent of LASPA. The permit shown in the video is specifically issued for setback parking, clearly the permit is not being used for it’s intended purpose. In light of this, LASPA wishes to categorically state that any activities or actions suggested in the video are illegal.
Additionally, LASPA would like to provide the following clarifications:
The on-street parking scheme in Lagos is yet to commence, although a pilot scheme is set to begin shortly.
No individuals or agents have been issued permits to charge fees for on-street parking or to collect hourly parking charges.
Only LASPA staff are permitted to wear our uniform featuring the Lagos State and LASPA logos while carrying out parking enforcement and related services. We encourage the public to be cautious and avoid engaging with individuals who may be posing as LASPA agents without proper authorization. Please disregard any misleading information about parking permits or charges from unauthorized sources. If you come across any suspicious activity, kindly report it to LASPA right away.
We remain committed to enhancing parking management in Lagos through transparent and fair measures that benefit all residents and visitors.
