#EndSARS: Why we won’t allow any form of protest in Lagos – Nigerian Police! Details👇

The Lagos State Police Command has announced that it won’t allow any form of  protest in the state because of the “#Endsars violence that wrecked havocs across the state”

This was contained in a statement made public by the command’s Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi.

According to the statement, any form of protest whether peaceful or otherwise will be frowned at in the state.

The command wishes to inform the general public that based on intelligence gathering from relevant intelligence agencies, some unpatriotic elements or group of people have concluded plans to orchestrate another set of violence in the state in furtherance to the recent Endsars violence, which has been analysed as dangerous and counterproductive.

Premised on this, the command, therefore, wishes to warn any individuals, group of students or any groups who might want to stage any form of protest, either “peaceful” or violent, or gathering whatsoever, to desist as the police and other security agencies will collectively and tactically resist any security threats or threats to public peace which might be triggered by protest or protesters in Lagos State.

The command also called on parents and guardians to discourage their wards from embarking from any form protest because of the possibility of it being hijacked by thugs.

The possibility of hijacking it by armed hoodlums to cause grieve and pains like the recent past is evident.

We encourage the general public to ignore any call for protest and go about their lawful businesses as all hands are on deck to maintain law and order and public safety across the length and breadth of the state.
