Lagos police command spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin dismisses claims Bobrisky now moves around with police escorts

The spokesperson of the Lagos state police command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, has denied claims that Bobrisky now moves around with police escorts.

A video of Bobrisky being escorted out of the Ikeja City Mall on Monday, April 1, after an engagement has made the rounds on social media.

Some Nigerians lashed out at the police for attaching security details to Bobrisky.

Reacting to the claims, Hundeyin via his X handle, pointed out that no police officer came there with anyone neither did they leave with anyone. He stressed that the officers are usually stationed at the mall to maintain law and order.

‘’The policemen in that video did not come with anybody, neither did they leave with anybody. They are posted there to maintain peace, order and security of the ICM. And that was exactly what they were doing as the situation was turning rowdy.

 

We would not wait for something untoward to happen and have Nigerians say, ‘But the police were there and did nothing. Why then were they there?’”
