Oworoshoki Protest: Lagos CP Declares Sowore Wanted

The Lagos State Police Command has declared activist Omoyele Sowore wanted for allegedly planning to incite public disorder and obstruct major roads across the state.

Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, made the announcement to journalists on Monday at the Iyana-Oworo section of the Third Mainland Bridge. He stated that the police were closing in on Sowore and others accused of orchestrating activities aimed at disrupting public peace.

“Sowore should surrender at the nearest police station or face arrest wherever he is found. Anyone attempting to cause disturbance or block our roads will face the full weight of the law,” Jimoh warned.

The police chief further revealed that intelligence reports suggested Sowore and his associates planned to stage demonstrations at key locations, including the Third Mainland Bridge, Lekki Tollgate, and Freedom Park.
