The Lagos State Government has reacted to the planned nationwide protest to begin on August 1st.
The state government declared 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 stated this on Tuesday while meeting with the Secretaries to the Local Governments, SLGs.
She, however, cautioned the intending protesters to be wary that the protest does not turn violent and destructive.
According to her, even though protests are the citizens’ legitimate right, there is no need to protest in Lagos, stating that the state has done well for its citizens.
She said, “It is a legitimate right for citizens to protest, as there is nothing wrong in it, but people should be wary that it does not turn violent and destructive.
“Lagos State has done so much for its citizens that nobody in the state should stand up and say they are going to break anything.
“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”.
