#ENDSARS: Lagos Protesters Raises Alarm Over Plot By Police Officers To Kill Them [Video]

Nigerian youth protesting extrajudicial activities by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) have raised an alarm by the Lagos State Police Command to kill them.

The protesters, who are embarking on a three-day demonstration for the disbandment of SARS, a dreaded unit of the Nigeria Police Force, had spend the night at the Lagos State Police Command on Wednesday.

However, on Thursday night, Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, reportedly ordered his men to dislodged the #EndSARS protesters that camped in front of State House of Assembly in Alausa, Ikeja.

The convener of OperationSanitize, Savvy Rinu, who is one of the organisers of the protest, had tweeted that the police towed their cars and were trying to dislodge them.

Some protesters also raised alarm that the police are seizing the chairs and canopies after switching off the street lights which are usually on 24/7 in Alausa.

Now some protesters have started raising alarm that the police were harassing and planning to kill them before daybreak.

KanyiDaily had alsopublished a video showing the moment a Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Obioma Obi, assaulted a peaceful protester and brought out his service pistol to shoot at the #EndSARS protesters in Owerri, Imo State.
