At least one police officer from the Iponri Divisional Police Station was slain after being attacked by motorcycle riders in Lagos State's Ijora Olopa region.


According to accounts, the cops had gone to the area to enforce the Lagos State government's limitation order on Okada riders when they were attacked by hoodlums armed with hazardous weapons such as cutlasses, clubs, and charms. 

The perpetrators attacked the police officers and attempted to burn their operation van, but they were stopped by the police response team of Rapid Response Squad and other police officers from the divisions deployed to the scene to avoid further breakdown of law and order in the region.

According to Lagos State Police Public Relation Officer (PPRO) SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who confirmed the event to LIB, one of the two police officers critically hurt in the attack later died.

"The policemen went to the area to enforce the Lagos State government's Okada restriction order when they were attacked."Some of the riders have been apprehended, and the scene has been returned to normalcy," he stated.
