Lagos Police boss Odumosu apologises, frees arrested #EndSARS protesters, journalists

At exactly 12:20pm, Lagos Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, takes brisk steps toward one of the huge police vans (black maria) parked at the Lekki toll gate, after a brief meeting with some of his men.

Inside this van are #EndSARSMemorial protesters who had been picked and locked up on Wednesday, October 20, 2021.

He asks them to identify themselves, one after the other.

Those who are able to identify themselves are let out, while those who aren't able to identify themselves remain locked up in this van, in the sweltering temperatures.

"We will investigate those still locked up in the van. We are taking them to the police station. Once we ascertain that they are harmless, we let them go," Odumosu says from behind a face shield, as dozens of other police officers mill around him.

Odumosu has apologised to journalists and anyone who was brutalised, harassed and wrongfully arrested during today's protests.

"That was done by Judases among us. By ignorant officers. This uniform I'm wearing, you paid for it," the police boss lectures.


The drive-through protest is now over, moments after police dispersed young protesters with teargas canisters.

Earlier, a man who claimed to be an Uber driver, was bloodied, pepper-sprayed and dragged on the road, as police made to forcibly throw him into the van.

Today's convoy memorial marked the one year anniversary of the viral police brutality protests of October 2020.

Very nice tactics from the Lagos Police boss.

They shouldn't see that as an opportunity to come out tomorrow again in the name of any protest.

Lagos won't allow any destruction of lifes and properties again.

NEVER AGAIN
PrinceOfLagos:

Shut up , I thought you bragged "Dem no born us well to protest at Lekki toll gate" but you've been shamed

The same police you threatened to unleash on us ended up being the same people apologising for their misdeeds at the protest ground.

Na we get Lagos and Dem no born anybody mama to stop us from protesting at Lekki toll Gate

If Tinubu come to the protest ground with his army to try nonsense, we go make am understand sey he's from Iragbiji in Osun state and can't control the rightful owners of Lagos like me and other Lagosians from occupying Lekki toll gate .

Na we get Lagos not Tinubu

Your reply is in the second picture below. Ipob Terrorist, lagosian wannabe.
We won't allow you destroy Lagos

These criminalistic protesters should rest. Only lawful citizens like Gumi and his bandit friends should organise any form of public gathering in Nigeria.

Anyone doing anything else should be shot on sight. angry

This is called "Catch and release."

Peaceful protest is not a crime.


Shame on y'all ponmo and boli zombified youths who thought the protest/car procession won't be successful.

Shame on Lagos CP who wore his boys war costumes just to face unharmed protesters.

Shame on Buhari and Lie Mohammed and other paid propagandists who have been denying the massacre of innocent peaceful protesters.

Y'all that support the killings, the ones that gave the order and those who pulled the trigger will never know peace.
The blood of those that were killed shall haunt them till their last moment on earth.

I commend all the courageous youths who participated in the protests/ car procession, to all lovers of freedom who couldn't make it there but lend their voices on social media I commend you all.

To every parent who lost a child to the Lekki massacre may the Lord comfort you all.

To some of us who lost loved ones, "FRIENDS" and neighbours to the massacre, let us find solace in the fact that our FRIENDS didn't die in vain cry they were heroes, they will remain our heroes.

Oppressors can't silent us, their bullets can stop freedom.


20 10 20 we never be forgotten!!!
