The Lagos State Police Command has declared human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, wanted, over alleged incitement of the public and obstruction of major roads in the state.
Olohundare Jimoh, Commissioner of Police in the state, disclosed this to journalists on Monday at the Iyana-Oworo section of the Third Mainland Bridge.
Jimoh said the command was closing in on Sowore and others accused of coordinating activities intended to disrupt public peace.
“Sowore should surrender at the nearest police station or face arrest wherever he is found.
“Anyone attempting to cause disturbance or block our roads will face the full weight of the law,” he said.
According to the Lagos police chief, intelligence reports indicated plans by Sowore and his associates to stage demonstrations at strategic locations, including Third Mainland Bridge, Lekki Tollgate and Freedom Park.
