The Lagos State Police Command has denied reports that its officers shot at residents protesting against the demolition of their homes, insisting that no firearm was discharged during the demonstration. The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Jimoh Olohundare, made the clarification on Thursday during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. His remarks followed widespread outrage over claims that a protester was shot in the leg during a demonstration at the Lagos State House of Assembly in Alausa. While acknowledging the right to protest, Olohundare stressed that the police remain committed to protecting peaceful demonstrations. “For every protest that happens in Lagos, we have police to protect it in a peaceful way.
