The Governor of Lagos State Babajide Sanwo-Olu has imposed a 24hr curfew in the State.
In his message to the citizens of the State, Sanwo-Olu says the #EndSARS has developed into a monster hijacked by hoodlums to perpetrate mayhem against the law-abiding Lagosians. Here are details of Sanwo-Olu’s message below :
Dear Lagosians,
I have watched with shock how what began as a peaceful #EndSARS protest has degenerated into a monster that is threatening the well-being of our society. Lives and limbs have been lost as criminals and miscreants are now hiding under the umbrella of these protests to unleash mayhem on our State.
As a government that is alive to its responsibility and has shown a commitment to the movement #ENDSARS, we will not watch and allow anarchy in our dear state.
