The Commissioner
of Police, Lagos State yesterday allayed fears of residents on suspected
explosive substance which was allegedly dropped in a manhole in one of the
Streets in Agege area of the State, saying there was nothing to worry about.
The development had led to residents scampering for
safety following the bomb scare, but rising from the Monthly Security Council
Meeting chaired by Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, the government urged the people
to go about their normal businesses.
The State’s Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Owoseni,
who briefed journalists at the end of the meeting alongside service commanders
of security formations and top government functionaries in the state, said
security agencies responded swiftly to the development and found out that contrary
to rumour, the substance was just pieces of thrash dropped in manholes.
