October 1 protest: Police, DSS warn against breakdown of law in Lagos
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Olarenwaju Ishola, has issued a stern warning to intending protesters against unlawful acts during the planned protest.
He gave the warning during a town hall meeting with stakeholders and security agencies organised by the Lagos Police Command on Friday in Ikeja, Lagos.
Some groups of people are said to be planning a nationwide protest slated for October 1 over challenges being faced in the country.
Ishola assured Lagos residents of police presence to maintain safety and order during planned protests.
“We are not stopping anybody from protesting, it is your legitimate
Right. We will protect all so that miscreants do not hijack it, ” he said.
The police boss said that the command would live up to its mandate of ensuring that no group or individual would be allowed to create chaos or destroy property in the state.
Ishola, however, said the proposed October 1 protest would be restricted to only one location in Lagos State.
Also speaking at the event, the Director of the Department of State Service in Lagos State, Dapo Amao, said that it is the right of citizens to protest or express their displeasure against government but it must be done in a civilised way.
He said that there is a need to prevent the protest from being hijacked by hoodlums, who are prepared to breach law and order and cause destruction in the state.
“We will collaborate with other security agencies to ensure lives and property are secured. We will provide enabling environment for businesses to thrive and make sure that things do not get out of hand,” he said.
