Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu says he has noted with deep concern the protests in some parts of Lagos State this morning, adding that there is no need for violence in the metropolis.
Parts of Lagos experienced some unrest with protesters who are said to be angry over the Naira redesign, taking to the street and displaying their frustrations with violence.
In his reaction, Governor Sanwo-Olu said he believes there is no need for violence as the Supreme Court is looking into this controversial matter and will make its position known on February 22.
According to a statement by his commissioner for information and strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, the governor said Lagos State has since joined the legal dispute- all in the interest of its people – in the belief that the highest court in the land has the capacity to adjudicate on the matter
