POLICE URGE LAGOSIANS TO DISREGARD OLD VIDEOS PURPORTEDLY DEPICTING ONGOING RIOTS IN LAGOS

- Assure that prosecution awaits purveyors of fake news

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, Idowu Owohunwa, has called on residents and visitors to Lagos State to disregard old videos purportedly of ongoing riots in different parts of the state being shared on social media by mischief makers.

These videos are not only old, but are being maliciously shared by scaremongers to incite and provoke people, cause panic, disharmony and unrest within Lagos State.

While the Cybercrimes Unit of the Command has been mandated to fish out the people behind this deliberate misinformation for immediate prosecution, the good people and residents of Lagos State are urged to disregard all forms of messages, especially on social media depicting fictitious, fallacious and divisive claims aimed at jeopardizing the peace currently being enjoyed in the state.

Once again, the Command assures Lagosians that all human and operational resources at its disposal have been fully and optimally deployed, especially at vulnerable points, including major markets across the state to ensure a total forestalling of breakdown of law and order in the state.

Owohunwa therefore urges law abiding residents and visitors to Lagos State to go about their lawful duties without fear or apprehension as their safety and security remain prioritized.

Click on the link above to see one of the old videos that's being shared on social media.

Obi followers are circulating old videos to incite people against one another. Obi should call his his followers to order.

What’s the police and Lagos state govenment doing about the Igbo Chief that was detain after seeking shelter from weapon and gun wielding Tinubu thugs in the house of an Oba .. a Yoruba king?

Let assume without conceding this videos .. why is Olumo still bouncing free?

Lagos state police command has already turn “ state” police ..

Power belongs to the people..

Igbos are cancer to this country once they don't get what they want using lies, they resort to another phrase using lies... kilode

Not all of them please. Just some hate filled individuals who are still pained they lost the elections. They're trying to instigate people against one other making inciting posts on social media that didn't even happen in Lagos

Expected..

Lagosians already knows it’s all fake videos..

We've predicted it. Pandora terrorist would circulate the entire place with fake news & propanganda. It's all DOA..

For those calling for riot because they want Nigeria to burn. But God is greater than them . They will be the one to burn instead

The lady below participated in the killing of this young man tagged “Yoruba thug” She did not only stopped there, she posted the video of the killing and boasted of how she also molested a female police officer.

She must be fished out and arrested.

You must have seen the video during the election, the lady below is the one shouting killing him, he must be allowed to die, and no one should help him when some people also paraded dogs.

Obidients trying hard to force a protest

Election don finish dem still continue with dere propaganda and fake News....


Wetin no help dem to win them still continue trying to look for sympathy up nd down...

Nairaland is fast becoming a toxic site with the tribal comments being allowed on frontpage… it’s so unfortunate what this site has been reduced to

What can children of hate and perdition not fabricate to cause mayhem?

That’s the same strategy they deployed during EndSars. But people are wiser now.

they police are accomplice

Noted.

I need someone that can do graphic design pls quote me asap. Thanks.

All the peddlers of fake news should be brought to book.

I am Yoruba and all these supposed hate on Igbo sound alien to me. Had Igbo in my primary school to secondary till University and I never for once spotted any difference.

The reason why Blacks can call their fellow black Nigga or Negro but when a white person do the same we attack them calling them racist is the same reason for all of these. In a nutshell the Igbos are the one claiming Victim Where they are truly loved.

On the Issue of GRV. It’s no way he could have won Lagos in the first place. He is so inexperienced, Naive.
If LP knew the would be this relevant they wouldn’t have field GRV.. trust me you won’t see him in the next election. If LP want to be relevant in Lagos they have to field a competent Lagosian.

I am loving our politics

Dogs that visited the lion in his den will be soaked in there own blood.

There are so many low IQ people on internet

Multitude of low IQ people having access to social media is equivalent to a zombie attack.

They will believe anything they see without giving a thought to it

Some people are really pained they can no longer shout no man’s land. They should not be angry, we will let them govern Lagos in 2027 so they can love us
No man’s land 77
No man’s land 120
No man’s land 1300
