OGUN POLICE DEBUNKS RUMOUR INVASION OF FULANI HERDSMEN ON LAGOS-BENIN EXPRESSWAY

The Command Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi  said on hearing of the rumour, the authority immediately deployed more policemen, which include Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad(FSARS) on the road, in addition to the normal routine patrol along the axis.

He added that, as a proactive measure, the Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Ilyasu personally visited the axis, who also dismissed the speculation and advised those behind the fake and panic message to desist

‘The rumour invasion of Lagos-Benin Expressway is nothing but a hoax. Apart from the normal routine patrol of policemen from the divisions along that axis, we have three standby teams of FSARS operatives patrolling the area’,  Oyeyemi said.

He added, ’Even the Commissioner of Police himself personally visited the area today and there is nothing of such. People should stop sending out panicking message to members of the public’
