LASG rescues 450 miscreants, reassures residents of safety

As part of the State wide exercise to free Lagos of visible security risks and to keep the State safe and rid it of miscreants, beggars, and  destitute, 450 miscreants were at the weekend rescued.

Of the lot, 371 pleaded for assistance to relocate to their various states due to the hardship they are facing in Lagos; 79 have been absorbed into some government facilities for rehabilitation after showing signs of being unwell.

In a statement by Gbenga Omotoso, Commissioner for Information and  Strategy in the State on Sunday, the ceaseless influx of miscreants, beggars, and the destitute on Lagos streets has raised fears of insecurity of lives and property. This is unacceptable.

The State wide exercise has continued after the arrest of some suspects under the Dolphin Estate bridge.

The exercise will continue as part of the government’s responsibility to keep our citizens safe and secure.
