The Lagos State Police Command has declared human rights activist Omoyele Sowore wanted for allegedly plotting to disrupt public peace in the state.
Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, announced this on Monday while addressing journalists in Lagos.
“I hereby, as the Commissioner of Police of the Lagos Police Command, declare Sowore wanted. “He is wanted for causing a disturbance of public peace and for acts to commit a serious felony by planning to obstruct traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge,” Jimoh said.
He said the police had uncovered plans to cause hardship for Lagos residents and visitors through the proposed protest.
“We will not allow this to happen. We are closing in on him wherever he is. He should come down and face the law,” the CP warned.
