He said:
“Three of the injured protesters have been discharged, while some are in the hospital. There is no record of any fatalities.”
Added to this, some hoodlums in Lagos on Monday, October 19, attacked operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) unit of the police command.
Eyewitnesses told journalists that the mayhem took place along the Herbert Macaulay Way in the Yaba area of the state.
It was gathered that the thugs attacked the security agents believing that they were deployed by the police force to disperse them and thus, forcefully end the protest.
The officers who were on their way in a truck to relieve their colleagues who have been on duty since Sunday, October 18, were overpowered by the thugs.
The criminals who used bottles and stones on the officers seriously injured not less than 14 of them in Ebute Meta. The injured security agents had been taken to the Police Clinic Ikeja while others were rushed to the General Hospital.
