Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo - Olu has imposed a 24 - hour curfew on the state effective 4pm on Tuesday (today) following attack on police station by thugs.
He said, “I have watched with shock how what began as a peaceful #EndSARS protest has degenerated into a monster that is threatening the well - being of our society. Lives and limbs have been lost as criminals and miscreants are now hiding under the umbrella of these protests to unleash mayhem on our State.
“As a government that is alive to its responsibility and has shown a commitment to the movement #ENDSARS, we will not watch and allow anarchy in our dear state.
“I, therefore, hereby impose a 24 - hour curfew on all parts of the State as from 4 pm today, 20 th October, 2020. Nobody, except essential service providers and first responders must be found on the streets.”
