Overview Of: Police officer disobeys Sanwo-Olu for invasion
An unidentified assistant superintendent of police refused Tuesday to obey Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s order to evacuate the police officers who had besieged the Magodo Phase 2 estate in Lagos.
On Tuesday morning, many residents of the farm protested the continued presence of armed police.
The protest and the closing of the door of the property canceled the vehicular movement since some presidents and business owners were prevented from going to their different destinations.
“Can you call your superiors in Abuja? That the governor is here and I am the chief of security, tell them that they have no business in my state and that I want them to leave here.
“That’s why I want you to make a phone call and tell your superior that I am here, standing in front of you. Make that phone call.
But the assistant superintendent of police told the governor that he only responds to instructions from his superiors.
“Yes sir, I am here at the instruction of the inspector general of police, through the attorney general sir and that is why I am here. I am too small or too short to call them, Your Excellency, with all due respect, you may call them directly, sir. “
When the governor asked him who his superiors were. Said the “Inspector General of Police, through the AGF.”
Sanwo-Olu said that he had spoken with the Attorney General earlier that day and that he is not aware of the police presence.
But the police officer said he was “waiting for a call to disconnect the“ various ”armed police officers inside the farm.
