Lagos CP Odumosu allegedly locks down Brooks estate,  arrests the security men for delaying him

If information reaching JustNews is anything to go by, Lagos state Police Commissioner who is preparing to exit office,  Hakeem Odumosu, may have engaged in an act capable of making mess of the good record he made for himself as the police boss, at  the center of excellence, Lagos.

In the evening of the New Year day,  Odumosu was alleged to have thrown caution into the wind by allegedly coming heavily on the security guards at Brooks Estate, Magodo and by extension imposed hardship on the residents of the estate.

The supper Corp, who was said  to have been at  Brooks estate, was  alleged to have lost his cool on account of allegation that the security guards at the estate gate, kept him waiting unnecessarily.  He was said to have been so angry that he allegedly ordered the arrest of the security men who were on duty. Not done, he was equally alleged to have ordered that the  estate gate be shut. He was also alleged to have deployed a detachment of police personel to supervise his order.

Shutting down of the gate thereby made it impossible for residents of the estate to either go into the houses or come of the estate. Information also has it that all effort to persuade the Commissioner of Police to ‘temper justice with mercy’ and allow residents who had at that  time stranded at the gate, to have access to their various homes, proved abortive.

However, as at the time of filling in report,  it could not be ascertained if the police boss had yielded to persuasion.
