We will resist any planned protest in Lagos – Police

The Lagos State Police Command has vowed to resist any form of planned protest, procession or gathering under any guise in Lagos

A statement by the Police Command, informed the general public that its intelligence from relevant security agencies, have uncovered plans by “unpatriotic elements and groups of people to orchestrate another set of destruction on the State in furtherance of the recent #EndSARS violence.

“Premised on this, the Command, therefore, wishes to warn private individuals, groups of students and others who might be contemplating any form of protest or gathering whatsoever, to desist as the Police and other security agencies will collectively and tactically resist any security threat or threats to public peace, which might be triggered by another protest in Lagos State”, the statement said.

The Police Command, therefore, implored parents and guardians to discourage their children or wards from embarking or joining any protest in the State due to the possibility of another hijack by armed hoodlums to wreak havoc in Lagos.

“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, order and public safety across the length and breadth of the State”, it added.
