Lagos police discredits viral voice note claiming Fulanis have invaded Badagry community
The Lagos State Police Command has reacted to a viral WhatsApp voice note claiming that Fulanis have camped in Muhammadu Buhari Estate, Agemowo, Badagry in readiness for a massive attack on Badagry.
In a statement released by its spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the command stated in unequivocal terms that the content of the voice note is entirely false and mischievously designed to cause unnecessary panic within Lagos State.
”It is worthy of note that there is a Police Divison close to the estate – Morogbo Division. There is also a Police Post next to the estate – Mowo Outpost. Police presence and intelligence gathering in the area is top-notch.
In a bid to be double (check) that the claims are false, the Divisional Police Officer of Morogbo visited the estate again today, inspected the entire facility and had an exhaustive session with the Facility Manager. The outcome of the operational visit lends credence to the futility of the voice-note,” Hundeyin said in a statement released.
