Hungry Police: Lagos Demands Transfer of Policemen Over Illegal Raid


The Lagos State Government has told the state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, to move out some policemen with the state Task Force on Environmental & Special Offences (enforcement) unit.

It was gathered that the request followed last Friday’s raids in different parts of Lagos by the affected policemen, which involved rough treatment and arrests of innocent citizens.
The Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde, on Tuesday said the state Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, wanted an immediate redeployment of the officers from the unit and possibly from the state over the “unacceptable conduct.”
