The Lagos State police react to a viral video of an Igbo chieftain threatening to invite IPOB to Lagos for the security of their people against thugs.
A video making the rounds on social media captured the threats from an alleged Eze of Ajao Estate in Lagos who lamented bitterly about attacks on Igbo-owned businesses.
The Eze alleged that their lives and business are not safe anymore in Lagos State at the hands of a group sabotaging their daily activities.
He pressed on to make a threat about inviting the separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) for security reasons.
In response to the viral video, the Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin assured Lagosians to maintain calm.
Hundeyin emphasized that the state’s police would not sit back and watch such unfold.
“To start with, the ever-ready @LagosPoliceNG will never fold its arms and allow such within the state…,” he wrote.
