Youths protesting against the brutality and extrajudicial killings by men of the now-disbanded Special Anti Robbery Squad of the Nigeria Police Force on Tuesday continued their protests at the Lagos State House of Assembly.
After about one hour, the Governor of Lagos, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, arrived at the venue of the protest in Alausa.
Despite his pleas, the protesters insisted that their demands must be met before they can stop the protests.
They have blocked traffic flow around Secretariat, Ikeja, along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The protest has brought vehicular movements to a standstill as motorists and commuters are trapped in the gridlock.
The protest held simultaneously at the Lekki and Gbagada areas of the state.
The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, had on Sunday announced the dissolution of the much-dreaded police unit after days of agitation across the country.
However, the protesters are not satisfied with the announcement. They want, amongst other things, the release of arrested protesters as well as a total overhaul of the Police Force.
