The Lagos State Police Command has debunked claims of
“Fulani boys in army uniform” making their way into the state.
The Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, reacted to
the viral video Friday night.
The spokesman said the narrative behind the footage “is not
only misleading but entirely baseless”.
“It is most unfortunate that this is coming from supposedly
enlightened people who should know a thing or two about verification of wild
claims before spreading the same.”
Hundeyin informed the public that the police authority in
Lagos reached out to the Nigerian Army.
The PRO said the military unit confirmed that the young men
recorded are newly passed out recruits from Army Depot, Zaria posted to Lagos.
“They are currently in the premises of 9 Brigade, Nigerian
Army, Ikeja.
“Lagosians are urged to disregard the videos and its
accompanying message as a piece of fake news”, he added.
