Suspected hoodlums on Tuesday hijacked a peaceful #EndSARS protest in Jos, Plateau state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hijacked protest resulted in burning of cars and looting of shops around the Ahmadu Bello, Terminus, Barrack Road, and Old Bukuru Park area of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Out of fear and tension, offices were hurriedly closed as residents scamper for safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Security agents were seen trying to arrest the situation as teargas were being fired to disperse the hoodlum who was throwing stones at the security and at the time of this report several shops have been looted, many who were injured were rushed to nearby pharmacy and health facilities to get attention but the State Acting Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Donbey Peters told the media on phone that two cars have been confirmed burnt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has ordered the immediate nationwide deployment of anti-riot police unit \u2013 the Police Mobile Force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The deployment is to protect lives and property of Nigerians amid the ongoing violence that has marred the #EndSARS protests rocking the country and as well as secure critical national infrastructure across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The IGP disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday titled, \u2018Attacks On Police Facilities, Others \u2013 IGP Orders Deployment Of Anti-Riot Police Officers\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement signed by Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Frank Mba, partly read, \u201cThe IGP has also ordered massive deployment of Police operatives to strengthen security around Correctional facilities nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe orders are coming on the heels of increasing attacks including acts of arson and malicious damage to public and private facilities as recorded in some states of the Federation including the Federal Capital Territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has condemned Tuesday night attack on #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki tollgate area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The governor said forces beyond the state\u2019s control were responsible for the gruesome act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He made this known when he visited the wounded protesters at some Lagos hospitals on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sanwo-Olu vowed to work with the Federal Government to get to the roots of the matter, adding that he will address Lagosians this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said, \u201cThis is the toughest night of our lives as forces beyond our direct control have moved to make dark notes in our history, but we will face it and come out stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve just concluded visits to hospitals with victims of this unfortunate shooting incident at Lekki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has taken me this long to make a statement because I have to prioritize the welfare of the victims of this very sad incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere are currently 10 patients at the Gen Hospital, 11 at Reddington and 4 at Vedic; with mild to moderate levels of injuries while 2 are receiving intensive medical care. 3 patients have been discharged & we will continue to monitor and ensure all patients get the best care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs the Governor of our state, I recognize the buck stops at my table and I will work with the FG to get to the root of this unfortunate incident and stabilise all security operations to protect the lives of our residents. I will give a state broadcast in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tragedy struck when security operatives, in a bid to disperse #EndSARS protesters, reportedly opened fire on the teeming youths at the Lekki tollgate around 7pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similar demonstrations have been staged in different parts of the state and the country.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Sanwo-Olu to address Lagosians today","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sanwo-olu-to-address-lagosians-today","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-21 09:23:51","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-21 09:23:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=782","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":770,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_date_gmt":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_content":"\n

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has condemned Tuesday night attack on #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki tollgate area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The governor said forces beyond the state\u2019s control were responsible for the gruesome act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sanwo-Olu vowed to work with the Federal Government to get to the roots of the matter, adding that he will address Lagosians this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said, \u201cThis is the toughest night of our lives as forces beyond our direct control have moved to make dark notes in our history, but we will face it and come out stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve just concluded visits to hospitals with victims of this unfortunate shooting incident at Lekki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has taken me this long to make a statement because I have to prioritize the welfare of the victims of this very sad incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere are currently 10 patients at the Gen Hospital, 11 at Reddington and 4 at Vedic; with mild to moderate levels of injuries while 2 are receiving intensive medical care. 3 patients have been discharged & we will continue to monitor and ensure all patients get the best care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs the Governor of our state, I recognize the buck stops at my table and I will work with the FG to get to the root of this unfortunate incident and stabilise all security operations to protect the lives of our residents. I will give a state broadcast in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plateau Governor Simon Lalong has announced a 24- hour curfew in Jos North and South with effect from 8pm of Tuesday 20th 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the governor, the curfew is till further notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement signed by Lalong, all forms of protests are banned in the two Local Governments Areas of Jos North and Jos South.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This followed the violent turn of #ENDSARS protests in the two local governments where 10 vehicles were burnt and shops looted by suspected hoodlums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement read, \"all public and private businesses are to shutdown activities immediately while parents are strongly advised to rein in their children, youth and wards to forestall further breakdown of law and order. Only those on essential services will be allowed to move around to their duty posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Security agencies have been directed to ensure that the curfew is enforced as defaulters will be arrested and prosecuted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"While the Government of Plateau State concedes to the constitutional rights of its citizens to undertake legitimate protests, it cannot sit and watch hoodlums take the law into their hands to cause mayhem on innocent citizens and the entire State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"I wish to reiterate the resolve of our administration in working assiduously to maintain the peace that the people of the State have laboured hard to build over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Let me again call on the protesters to pursue the path of constructive engagement and dialogue since the Government has started implementing their demands,\" he said.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Lalong announces 24-hour curfew in Jos North, South","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"lalong-announces-24-hour-curfew-in-jos-north-south","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=770","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":34},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};
