Speaking to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) outside the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) nationwide protest in Lagos on February 27, 2024, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Adegoke Fayoade, stressed that he gave the protesters water and biscuits because he didn’t want them to pass out while they were marching.
According to Daily Trust, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Adegoke Fayoade said “I provided water and biscuits because I don’t want anyone to collapse on the way. We have to use water to strengthen everybody. That is the least we could do. The protest went on as agreed with the NLC leadership. We promised them protection and we provided such from the beginning to the end. The same protection will be provided on Wednesday and I will be part of the operation.”
Mr. Adegoke Fayoade added that the Lagos State Police Command was committed to protecting the lives and properties of the good citizens of the State.
