Lagos Condemns Army Attack on Sanitation Officers
The Lagos State Government condemned the “unprovoked attack” on the Environmental Sanitation Corps (KAI) by Nigerian Army personnel in Yaba. Commissioner for the Environment, Tokunbo Wahab, reported that the incident occurred while KAI officers were performing their lawful duties.
The situation was quickly controlled thanks to Chief of Army Staff Lieutenant General T. Lagbaja and Lt. Col. T.E. Ogbonyomi. Wahab expressed gratitude for their intervention, allowing KAI officers to continue their work without disruption. He emphasized that military personnel must respect civil authority and that such attacks on law enforcement will not be tolerated.
Wahab stated, “We strongly condemn this unwarranted assault on officers executing their duties. We are committed to maintaining a cleaner Lagos while upholding safety and sanitation standards.” This incident follows a September case where a suspect was arrested for assaulting a Ministry of Environment staff member while resisting arrest after defecating on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger speaks on the xenophobia issues occurring around Africans in South Africa.
