#ENDSARS: ARMED POLICEMEN TAKE OVER AFRIKA SHRINE
Men of the Nigeria Police Force are currently restricting movement in and out of the Afrika Shrine, Ikeja in Lagos State to prevent a planned #EndSARS meeting from taking place at the relaxation Spot.
The policeman mounted strategic positions across the shrine while their vans were parked in front of the relaxation Spot.
The programme, which is organized by Seun Kuti, son of Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, was initially scheduled to be held on Tuesday at the Afrika Shrine.
Seun had earlier sent out flyers announcing a meeting on the lessons and tasks arising from the recent#endsars protest.

But the police later wrote to the Kuti household and threatened to shut down the venue if the programme holds.
In a letter to the Kuti household and supervisor of the African Shrine, the police stated the programme was not welcome and shall be tagged a deliberate motion to sabotage the restoration of peace in Lagos.
Sequel to the warning by the police, Seun said he will go ahead with his programme but at a different venue.
