 Police Send Strong Warning To Nigerians Ahead Of #EndSARS Third Anniversary


The Lagos State Police Command has sent a note of warning to Nigerians ahead of the #EndSARS third anniversary on Friday, October 20.

The Police noted that it will not tolerate any form of gathering at the tollgate in the Lekki area of the state.

This announcement comes as several civil society organisations prepare for a peaceful march to commemorate the third anniversary of the events that transpired on October 20, 2020, during the #EndSARS protests in Lekki, Lagos.

Addressing this issue, the Police Public Relations Officer for the Lagos State Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, stressed that no gathering or convergence of any kind would be permitted in the vicinity of the tollgate.

Hundeyin, who made this known through his official X (Twitter) handle, further assured that the police would be present in full force to ensure the safety of all participants in the peaceful procession, provided they do not disrupt traffic.

He wrote,“Buses at/by Oriental Hotel suggests stopping/waiting of buses and gathering of passengers. For the avoidance of doubt, no gathering/convergence whatsoever would be allowed anywhere around the toll gate.

      “However, men of #LagosPoliceNG would be fully on ground to ensure security for all persons participating in the peaceful walk as long as they are not obstructing traffic.”
