Lagos CP: Police provided refreshments for protesters to prevent fainting

Adegoke Fayoade, Lagos police commissioner, says the command provided water and biscuits for protesters to prevent them from exhaustion.

On Tuesday, the two-day mass protest called by the Labour Congress (NLC) against the rising cost of living kicked off across the country, including Lagos.

In Lagos, NLC members and residents gathered at the Ikeja underbridge for the protest.

Before the protest commenced, the protesters were addressed by Funmi Sessi, NLC Lagos chairperson, and the state commissioner of police.

The protesters moved from the Ikeja underbridge via Obafemi Awolowo road to the Lagos state government house at Alausa.

However, during the demonstration, police officers distributed biscuits and water to the protesters.

Speaking with NAN, Fayoade said the Lagos police command provided the refreshments to prevent people from collapsing during the protest.

He said the protesters trekked a long distance under the hot weather and needed the provision of refreshments.

He added that the protest was successful, noting that nobody was arrested.

“I provided water and biscuits because I don’t want anyone to collapse on the way,” he said.

“We have to use water to strengthen everybody. That is the least we could do.

“The protest went on as agreed with the NLC leadership. We promised them protection from the beginning to the end.

“The same protection will be provided on Wednesday and I will be part of the operation.”

Best way to de-escalate the tension.

Because if the police wants to be hostile to the protestors...it could turn to full blown riots and looting in the twinkle of an eye.

Hunger no dey look face and makes people behave irrationally.

We can protest but we don't have to burn down anything and the police doesn’t have to shoot at anyone. We are getting there.

SMART!

Nigerians have a constitutional right to protest.

But BLAST OFF the head of any IPOBIC ELEMENT that attempts to destroy or burn anything.

The wanton destruction of Endsars MUST not happen again!

Well done to the Govt

This is how protest should be done and not give to anarchists that want to burn down the state, loot and destroy public property

Kudos to Lagos and Oyo. Anyone that wants to burn and destroy properties in protest should start from his family house

Protesting against himself or against his paymaster? Always turning serious issues into jokes. This isn't protest yet, this is drama. sad

Lagosians or Nigerians can't ever line up in a straight line without wahala.
