The Lagos State Government has extended the start of the 24-hour curfew until 9 pm.

It was initially announced to begin at 4 pm.

According to a statement on their official Twitter page, the extension is to enable people who are stuck in traffic get to their destinations.

It read: “Update! Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has directed that enforcement of the 24hour curfew in the State should not start until 9 pm to enable people stuck in traffic get to their destinations.”

This comes amid news that security operatives have opened fire at protesters camped at the Lekki toll gate.

Security operatives have invaded the Lekki toll gate where thousands of protesters have been demonstrating against police brutality for the past 13 days.

The protesters have refused to leave the toll gate despite the 24-hour curfew imposed by the state government.
