A peaceful protest organized by civil society in Lagos in memorial of those killed during the last anti fuel subsidy protest has been dispersed by the police.

Dipo Fashina, a former ASUU president, who led the procession, and other activists have been arrested by the police and taken to the Area Command at Ikeja.

The procession, which began at Labour House, Yaba, was broken up at Maryland after an argument between the organizers and a senior police officer.

Fashina and Abiodun Aremu, leading the procession walked out on the senior police officer when they could not convince him that "they did not need police permit for the march."

The officer, who said he had orders from the police commissioner, signalled his officers and fumes from tear gas canisters rented the air.

A peaceful protest(indeed) organized by civil society(whats the name) in Lagos in memorial of those killed during the last anti fuel subsidy protest (Chai, Joblessness)has been dispersed by the police.
( Mr. Disgruntled)Dipo Fashina, a former ASUU president, who led the procession, and other activists[b] have been (Should have been thoroughly beaten too)arrested by the police and taken to the Area Command at Ikeja[/b] (Nice Move).
The procession, which began at Labour House, Yaba, was broken up at Maryland after an argument between the organizers and a senior police officer.

Fashina and Abiodun Aremu, leading the procession walked out on the senior police officer (This is why people get shot, deliberately breaking the law and insulting a courteous armed police officer) when they could not convince him that "they did not need police permit for the march."(Just imagine, teaching a senior police officer his Job)

The officer, who said he had orders from the police commissioner, signalled his officers and fumes from tear gas canisters rented the air. (agile! agile!)
