It was gathered that Olasupo was kidnapped at about 6:30 am on Sunday around Eledumare-Fidiwo axis of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
Sources said the man was on his way to his duty post alongside one other member of the traffic corps when the kidnappers struck.
Vanguard reliably gathered that the police and local vigilantes are on the trail of the suspected kidnappers.
The kidnappers were said to have ambushed the men as they suddenly emerged from the bush along the highway.
