#ENDSARS ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY: POLICE WARNS AGAINST ANY FORM OF PROTEST OR DEMONSTRATION IN LAGOS STATE

The Lagos State Police command has warned youths, groups and associations against any form of protest or demonstration in the State.


This comes after Intelligence gathered that some youths are planning on embarking on a protest in commemoration of one year anniversary of ENDSARS.


The command, in a statement by the State’s Police PRO, CSP Adekunle Ajisebutu, said it would not fold its arms and allow any misguided element to disrupt the peace and serenity currently being enjoyed in the State.


He said, “Lagosian and indeed Nigerians cannot afford to relive the distasteful experience of last year protest which caused pain, anguish, needless loss of lives and wanton destruction of public and private property”.


The Command’s Spokesman further stated, “In view of the volatility of the present situations in the country, and the breakdown of law and order which the planned protest might cause, the Lagos State Police Command sternly warns against any form of protest today”.

 

“The Command wishes to use this medium to warn the youths, groups, or associations planning such protest to jettison the idea forthwith. The police in the state will not fold their arms and allow some misguided elements disrupt the peace and serenity currently being enjoyed in the state”.


“To forestall breakdown of law and order, the police will use all legitimate means within their constitutional powers to suppress the planned protest”.


He said, “Therefore, parents and guardians are advised to warn their children against participating in the planned protest. Individuals or groups sponsoring such protest are also warned in their own interest to desist from such unpatriotic plan or face the full weight or wrath of the law”.


The EndSARS protests held across the country last year, most notably in the month of October, as a campaign against police brutality, but came to an end after security operatives allegedly shot at unarmed protesters at the Lekki toll gate on October 20. The protests were accompanied with loss of lives and properties.
