Contrary to the video making the rounds of an attack on Ikorodu police station, Igbogbo, Lagos by hoodlums, the state police command has refuted the claims, stating that there was no attack on any of its facilities.

“There is no Ogijo police station in the state command but in Ogun State, and the same station, Ogijo, was never attacked as speculated in the news. The video in circulation was a portion of the scene of the recent bank robbery attack in Ikire, Osun State,” he said.

The Lagos State Police Command, therefore, urged the public to dismiss the viral video as fake and mischievous, adding that the command remains committed to providing adequate security in Lagos State.

Meanwhile, the command yesterday commenced investigation into Tuesday’s killing of a suspected kidnapper and burning of a golf car at Mulero bus stop, Agege, Lagos at about 8 a.m.
