Just In: No More Protest In Lagos, Says Police

The Lagos State police command on Tuesday disclosed that any form of protest would not be allowed in the state.

This is coming after the state Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, declared 24 hours curfew in the state.

The police while giving reason for its decision noted that officers, men, formations and innocent Nigerians at different parts of the states have been attacked.

The spokesperson of the command, Muyiwa Adejobi, alao referred to the curfew which takes effect from 4pm of Tuesday.

“Lagos State Police Command wishes to inform the general public that henceforth, no protest or gathering or possession, under whatever guise, is permitted.”

He further stated that all security operatives have been deployed to enforce the curfew across the state.

The command condemned the burning of Orile Police Station.

The spokesman added that, “some of our policemen were critically injured and unconfirmed reports state that one of them is dead”.

“Its crystal clear that the End SARS protest has been hijacked by hoodlums who want to run down the state.”

Adejobi declared that the Police Command will resist anarchy and unrest with all powers within the ambit of the law.
