Lagos State Police Command has arrested about one hundred and ten suspects for various offences during the local government election which held on Saturday.
Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, said he also monitored the process in some areas of the state, saying the police responded promptly to the incidence of violence in some parts of the state.
Owoseni maintained that no major incidence of violence was recorded during the election, stressing that adequate security measures were put in place.
Responding to reactions from some residents of the state who criticised the restriction of movement for some hours, the commissioner said adequate information had been passed across before the election took place.
He said the law was made on restriction and enough information was also sent out prior to this time… so the police only enforced the law and the restriction order was properly enforced.”
