Lagos to Close 11 Major Roads for Lagos Women Run on Saturday
The Lagos State Government will close 11 key roads on Lagos Island and Victoria Island for the Lagos Women Run on Saturday, November 9.
Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, announced on Thursday that the closures, including routes from Tafawa Balewa Square through Outer Marina, Bonny Camp Bridge, and Onikan Roundabout, aim to ease movement for the event.
Alternative routes have been designated for motorists heading to the Third Mainland Bridge and Ikoyi. LASTMA, NPF, FRSC, and LSNC officers will be stationed along the route to manage traffic. The government encourages motorists to remain patient during the temporary closure for the race.
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.
