The Lagos state police command has advised residents of the state to
disregard rumors being peddled by some persons that there was a bomb
blast at the Mafoluku- Oshodi area of the state on Saturday. A statement
released by the commands spokesperson, ASP Olarinde Famous-Cole,
says a video being circulated purportedly from the bomb blast scene in
Oshodi, is actually from the Banex bomb blast in Abuja in 2014. Read the
statement below....
“We would like to allay the fears of the general public with regards to
the falsehood being circulated on the social media in respect of
security situation at Mafoluku-Oshodi and environs. Oshodi is relatively
calm and not boiling as being erroneously peddled. It is mischief and
callousness to put people in fear.
Video footage being circulated to back the false information is that of
the bomb incident around Banex Plaza, Abuja in 2014. The Lagos State
Police Command avail this opportunity to reassure members of the public
that we will continue to work in partnership with the good people of
Lagos and other Security Agencies to ensure safety and security of lives
and properties. Always remember to say something if you see
something".
