We might slow down the curfew within 48 hours – Sanwo Olu

Story from Kenneth AFOR, Lagos

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has hinted that the state may relax the curfew within the next 48 hours to allow residents to resume their normal socio-economic activities as soon as the level tension reduces.

He made this known Thursday morning via a live interview on Arise News.

The curfew was imposed on Tuesday night due to the increasing number of violence in the state, a fall-out of the #EndSARS protests.

To beef up security operations in the state, the governor said he has received calls from the various service chiefs in the country who had pledged to deploy their men to the state to quell the already heightened tensions based on the request from the governor.
