Demolition protest: Police warn Sowore, others to keep off Lagos

On the recent Oworonshoki demolition, CP Jimoh defended the government’s action, describing the affected areas as illegal structures and hideouts for criminals. “The government is justified in clearing them. Genuine residents have been compensated, and this was documented and covered by the media two days ago,” he said. He accused some individuals of attempting to exploit the situation for political or criminal purposes, warning that the police would not allow anyone to use the guise of protest to cause mayhem.
