Members of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) on Monday trooped to the streets of Lagos to protest the high cost of living and soaring food prices.
Videos on social media showed protesters under a human rights group identified as the “Take It Back Movement” carrying placards with various inscriptions in the Ojuelegba area of Lagos State.
The Lagos Commissioner of Police Adegoke Fayoade had on Sunday cautioned the protesters against disrupting commercial activities. But during the demonstration hours later, police officers were spotted at the protest grounds providing security. The protesters took their grievances as far as the Maryland axis of the state.
