We must educate citizens, police officers, before enforcing lockdown orders – Lagos Police Command
The Lagos State Police Command has disclosed that it will educate its officers, men as well as residents on coronavirus before enforcing the orders and guidelines given by the government since the disease is new to everybody in the country.
He said: “It is something new to all of us even from the law enforcement angle. None of our generations has witnessed this in the past. Enforcing the order is not like conventional law enforcement where we deal with armed robbery, kidnapping etc. “Within the town also, those who are exempted during the lockdown period were allowed to go out to conduct their essential services. Those not exempted were stopped while those apprehended were charged to court.
