Police Vows To Resist Protesters At #OccupyLekkiTollgate Saturday

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, Hakeem Odumosu, has vowed to resist the Saturday 13 February protesters at Lekki Tollgate.

According to him, no protest will be allowed to hold at the Lekki Tollgate on Saturday.

Recall that some Nigerians on February 9, came up with a hashtag #OccupyLekkiTollgate slated for Saturday.

However, feedbacks show that the intending protest was in response to the Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry, which last Saturday gave permission to the Lekki Concession Company (LCC) to take over the tollgates that have been shut since October 2020 after the shooting incident that reportedly left some EndSARS protesters dead.

The Police Commissioner said neither of the two groups (#OccupyLekkiTollgate nor #DefendLagos) would be allowed to hold any protest on Saturday.

Odumosu said: “Allowing both groups to carry out their planned protests will be counter-productive. No protest in any guise will be allowed to take place on Saturday 13th February 2021.”
