Idongesit Udoewah

Ahead of the planned August 1 nationwide protests, the Lagos State Government stated that such demonstrations are within the rights of citizens, saying there is nothing wrong in it.

Bimbola Salu-Hundeyin, the Secretary to the state government declared this on Tuesday while addressing with the Secretaries to the Local Governments, SLGs.

She did, however, warn the intended protestors to be careful that the protest does not turn violent and destructive.
According to her, even though protests are the legal rights of the citizens, there is no need to protest in Lagos, stating that the state has done well for its residents.

She said “Sincerely, and I mean it; it is not because I am the Secretary of the State Government; I speak from my heart and God knows; there is no reason for anybody to cause any protests or riots or violence in Lagos State."
