Imohimi Orders Show Of Force Across Lagos

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State,  Imohimi Edgal, has ordered all police formations under the command to embark on Show of Force.

According to him, the exercise will commence tomorrow, Thursday, June 14, between 0600hrs and  1600hrs across the state.

“The operation is to assure Lagosians of the readiness of the command to provide adequate security for the inhabitants of the state throughout the Sallah holiday and beyond,”he said.

The Show of Force, among other things, is designed to send a clear warning to criminal elements that the police, at the forefront of  Internal Security (IS) in the state, with the active collaboration of sister agencies, will give no room for evil and anti-social acts.

Members of the public are advised not to panic when they see policemen  marching through their streets with their security assets as the operation is not to cause fear or intimidation. Any inconvenience caused by this operation is not intended.

The CP therefore seeks the understanding and cooperation  of Lagosians while the activity lasts.
