The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr Kenneth Nwosu, gave the assurance in a statement.Police in Lagos State have urged the residents to go about their lawful duties and disregard report in the social media warning the people to keep away from some areas in the metropolis.
He said: “The attention of the Lagos State Police Command has once again been drawn to a false information making the rounds in some isolated social media platforms claiming that the residents and visitors to Lagos have been warned by the Nigeria Police to be wary of some locations like Estate Bus Stop at Ketu-Alapere, Berger bus stop (on OPIC–Ibadan Expressway), First Gate Junction, Agidingbi, Boundary bus stop in Ajegunle, Ijora bus stop, Mile 2 Oke, Church bus stop, Agboju, Mile 2 (Badagry Expressway), Agric bus stop, Mile 2, Abulosu bus stop on Mile 2-Badagry Expressway, Apongbon bus stop, School bus stop, on Iba-Mile 2 Road in Ajegunle and Bamboo area on Oworonshoki, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.”
Nwosu said that the claim was false, misleading and a figment of the authors’ imagination. “The command wishes to enjoin all the residents and visitors to Lagos to ignore the false and misleading information in its entirety and go about their lawful businesses without fear of molestation,” he added. According to him, the police have stepped up efforts to secure lives and property of the residents and visitors alike.
