Police Restrict Movements In, Out Afrika Shrine Over #EndSars Meeting

Hours after sending a letter threatening to shut down Afrika shrine, over hosting of programme scheduled to evaluate the lessons and task of the #EndSars movement, reports say that the police have restricted movement in and out of the entertainment centre.

AllNews earlier reported that the programme tagged "EndSars Movement: Lessons and Tasks" organised by Seun, a singer and son of late Fela Kuti was scheduled to hold Tuesday, November 17.

However, the police, in a letter sent to the Kuti family and manager of the Afrika Shrine, said the planned meeting was unacceptable, while citing the recent events that trailed the #EndSars protest.

The letter read in part “It is on this premise that I write that such a gathering or meeting planned to be hosted at your venue is not welcome at this perilous time when the security of the nation is trying to find her feet to stabilize all threat to life and properties.

“You are hereby warned to suspend such gathering as any infraction that may emerge from this gathering will be tagged a deliberate action to sabotage the transition and restoration of the peace in Lagos State by the Lagos state Government and the Nigeria police Force,” the letter to the Kuti family partly reads.
