The Lagos State Police Command has released all protesters arrested during the #EndBadGovernance protest on Thursday.

The command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the release in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday.

“All protesters arrested on Thursday were released same Thursday.

The Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Adegoke Fayoade, called the State CID to order for their release,” Hundeyin said.

One of the protest leaders, Inibehe Effiong, had earlier claimed that at least 12 protesters were arrested on Thursday.

However, he later corroborated the police spokesperson’s claim that all those arrested had been released.

The protesters gathered at Gani Fawehinmi Park in Ojota for the second day on Friday, with the Lagos State Commissioner of Police present to supervise and prevent any potential takeover by hoodlums.

The commissioner was reported to have provided water and snacks for the protesters.

The protesters suspended their agitations for a while to observe Jumat prayers at the park.

The police spokesperson commended the protesters for their peaceful conduct and the police for their professional handling of the situation.
