The Lagos State Government has reiterated its condemnation of the mob attack in which a sound engineer was killed in Lekki last week.
The Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Gbenga Omotoso, has spoken with the family of the victim, Mr. David Sunday. He conveyed the condolences of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and assured them that justice will be done in this matter.
The government promised to address the root cause of this and similar incidents, which have caused public anxiety even as it asked residents to remain calm as police continue to investigate the matter.
Omotosho said Lagos has no room for savagery and anybody found to have been involved in this barbarism will surely face the law.
The police are holding four suspects at the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Panti. Two survivors of the condemnable act are in hospital.
Meanwhile, the Lagos State Taskforce began a tactical operation on securing Lagos today from the jaws of the murderous mob on Okada, starting in Lekki axis.
A total number of 123 have been reported to have been arrested thus far and the operation will be continuous across the state. This was gathered from the SA on media and we wish to appreciate the prompt response of The Lagos State Government on this. #EndJungleJustice #SecureLagos đźš”
