The Lagos State Police Command on Friday began a show of force to prevent supporters of LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi from gathering at the Lekki Toll Gate for the #Obidatti23 Forward Ever rally scheduled to hold on Saturday, October 1.
Recall that the Federal High Court in Lagos on Wednesday ordered the organisers of the rally not to gather at the toll gate, their planned convergence point.
The court also directed the Inspector General of Police and the Lagos State Police Commissioner to ensure compliance with the order.
In a viral video, the policemen were seen in a massive and well-coordinated show of force in Lekki area of the state.
