Lagos State Police Command says it has begun an investigation after two churches called to report that they spotted strange-looking men in their midst.
The State police spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, disclosed this development, via his Twitter handle @BenHundeyin.
He wrote “Today alone, two churches called the Police that they spotted strange looking men in their midst. One church even claimed it was ‘three Fulani men’ they saw. We responded swiftly. The men were not Fulani and had nothing incriminating on them. However, we are still investigating.
“Unfortunately, even before our arrival, panic-filled voice notes started flying around. While we appreciate security consciousness and speaking up promptly, we enjoin Lagosians not to panic, be jumpy or paranoid. All said, if you see something, still say something.”
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that this is coming a week after suspected terrorists attacked and killed almost 40 persons at the St. Francis Catholic Church, Owo in Ondo state.
