IGP Withdraws Police From Company After They Stopped LASG From Unblocking Drains

The real estate company brought 20 uniformed personnel to prevent the Lagos State Government from unblocking the drains, but the commissioner for the environment, Tokunbo Wahab, called the inspector general of police, Tunji Disu, who ordered the men to withdraw from the area. The LASG then unblocked the drains.

Today, we continued the reopening of the blocked drainage channel along Chevron Drive, which had been obstructed by Aje Residence Real Estate Agency. This drainage channel is critical to mitigating flooding and protecting the Ajiran community.

During the enforcement operation, a principal representative of the real estate company mobilised nearly 20 uniformed personnel in an attempt to obstruct our officials from carrying out their lawful duties. Normalcy was restored following the timely intervention of the Inspector General of Police, @TunjiDisu1, who directed the immediate withdrawal of the personnel.

We remain resolute in our commitment to protecting lives and property across Lagos State. We will continue to enforce environmental laws without fear or favour, regardless of whose interests are affected.

They really have mind, LASG should revoke their license for at least 2 years

What an arrant nonsense

More screenshots of the incident.

Really a banana republic.

Nice one then. dem too dey doo

How about punishing those officers and the person who ordered them to get there most importantly. We need to build a system that deters people from doing anyhow. You don't need to know the IG for the policeman to do his job

They are all deceiving themselves.
People in LASG were paid to look the other way.

Okay now, after this exercise, what happens to the developer?
Any punitive action?

Could these miscreants building nonsense try this during Fashola's time?

But this Sanwo just tries to please everybody, not wanting to hurt anyone. His lethargy and lack of willpower is a big problem to Lagos.

Who deployed the police officials for such illegal duty in the first place? Is the state police CP complicit? These are questions that should be asked, everybody with little power now act as commander in chief in Nigeria nowadays 💔

Good for of LASG. Those police officers wanted to form the captain soldier that blocked Wike the other day in Abuja.

The CP may not even be aware. The Policemen can be from any of the Police Federal formations in Lagos.

Assuming they demoted like 5 of them instantly together with their Oga who sent them, the rest would have given themselves brain.

not only them, soldiers too

A big goat costs 120k.
With 100k, you can get 4 Policemen armed with Ak47s to follow you around for a full day.

That is Nigeria for you. I country where you can use government apparatus to fight the same government.
If the state Ministry of Environment had issues with a private company where the police is involved, would the Commissioner for Environment not call the Commissioner of police in the same state instead of the IGP?
These all go to show how disorganized the system is.

IamOrei:

Those ones are far cheaper than Policemen.

Politicians underpay our law enforcement officers so they can be used for dirty jobs and get paid crumbs. It's not fair.

Another Wike-Yerima experience ...

Policemen just like to show their power against unarmed civilians

Nigeria is a lawless place that needs recolonization

Power dey pass power amen, IGP power pass aje real estate agency Amen

Please sell this country to Chinese or isreal

Why should they punish the policemen that must answer order from their boss?

It's the officer that deployed them, that needs to be sanctioned.

Aje Residence Real Estate Agency.
Aje means witch. Not surprised because Witch no like good thing

Playing to gallery, where was LASG when the canal was sandfilled. Has IGP not withdrawn police attached to VIPs, how did one single individual got 20 officers. Nigeria is on a circus.
